Eco Marine Hiking Adenture Clean up – Celebrate Earth Day

10 Apr 2021

Eco Marine is hosting a socially-distant hiking cleanup on Saturday April 10, 2021 in Mui Wo, Lantau to celebrate an early Earth Day!

They are targeting to clean up a beach in South Lantau close to the Mui Wo Ferry terminal (1.5 to 2.0km easy hike to Cleanup Point) and are looking for you to lend a helping hand for 15 to 30 minutes during your morning hike.

Event:
Eco Marine staff will set up a cleaning station from 9:00 am to 12:00 noon at the Cleanup Point with bags, gloves, tongs and hand sanitizer and will give short cleanup briefings to participants as they arrive at different times. Come join them at the Cleanup Point for 15 to 30 minutes anytime between 9:00am to 12:00 noon to help clean up a small portion of the coastline. Participants will conduct the cleanup in groups of 1 to 4 and we will limit total participants at any given time to comply with social distancing measures. At the end of the session, Eco Marine will weigh all the rubbish collected to document our collective impact. We will also be engaging volunteers to bring suitable items for recycling to GREEN@Mui Wo.

Prize:
Volunteers will have the chance to win an Involuntary Pairs Game! This card game zooms in on plastic pollution in the oceans, making the magnitude of the crisis visible. It’s a dynamic way to see, understand and grasp the fate and implications of our plastic age.

Cleanup Point:
Small Beach around 1.5 to 2.0km from Mui Wo Ferry Terminal. Walk in reverse along Lantau Trail Section 12 and then make a left down a short steep concrete path at the Eco Marine signage.
