Why are you passionate about reducing single-use plastics?
I believe we need to start somewhere, and I think that each person can start by reducing their plastic use, and ultimately get rid of single-use plastics. It's a habit, and a bit of a lifestyle change, but it's all for the better.
What is your biggest pet peeve when it comes to plastics usage in HK?
As a citizen in HK, I love this city and it hurts to see that we aren't taking care of it. The city and the people are so busy on a daily basis and may overlook the issues.
What actions have you taken in your own life and/or business to help reduce plastic waste?
At home, we use different garbage bins for different types of waste, such as paper, plastic, compost, etc. Our family tries our best to bring and use our own bottles, cloth bags, metal straws, etc. It's about starting with the little things here and there.

We try to reuse items in the house, such as paper bags from shopping—we use these paper bags to wrap gifts for special occasions such as Christmas, instead of using new wrapping paper.
