About us
The Green Earth is a registered environmental charity established in February 2016 in Hong Kong. TGE believes extravagant consumption is the root cause of many of today’s environmental problems – the consumption levels of Hong Kong exceed our basic needs and eco-capacity. The public needs a change of mindset and behaviour if we want to tackle these environmental problems. We at TGE are dedicated to bring about the change. Through policy advocacy, green civic education and corporate partnership, TGE facilitates action by igniting green energy throughout the community and promotes resource conservation and a zero-waste culture by changing attitudes, and to turn Hong Kong into a healthy green city. Our vision is that everyone in our community will embrace green citizen responsibilities to help establish a sustainable living environment for this and future generations.
