Picture this: top Cantopop stars like Ian, Stanley, Jer, and Jeremy from Mirror, alongside Gin Lee, Janice Vidal, Yan Ting, JACE, Beanies and Rover, lighting up the stage, with an electrifying crowd and the chance to be there for free - all while contributing to Hong Kong’s carbon neutrality goals.
The Zero Carbon Concert is a unique music event dedicated to reducing carbon footprints. It’s not just a show but part of a broader movement encouraging everyone to make small changes to help achieve carbon neutrality.
New campaign promotes low-carbon living
The Carbon Reduction Action campaign encourages the public to adopt low-carbon habits in clothing, food, living and travel.
Organised by the Environment and Ecology Bureau and the Environmental Campaign Committee (ECC) and funded by the Environment and Conservation Fund, the campaign is aligned with Hong Kong’s 2050 carbon neutrality goals.
Backed by approximately 150 strategic and collaboration partners, including public and private organisations, industry groups, non-profits and schools, the campaign is meant to engage the community in various carbon reduction activities.
Since August, the ECC has shared tips for reducing carbon footprints on social media, and the launch of the official campaign on November 1 will encourage people to put this knowledge into action.

Simple tips to cut your carbon footprint
- Clothing: Reduce unnecessary clothing purchases to avoid emissions from production. Recycle or donate items you no longer wear.
- Food: Opt for locally sourced ingredients to lower emissions from long-distance transport and recycle food waste properly. Bring reusable cutlery and water bottles to cut down on single-use plastics.
- Living: Use energy-efficient appliances such as LED bulbs, turn off lights when not in use, and recycle regularly.
- Travel: Walk or use public transport whenever possible to reduce car emissions.
Incorporating these habits into your daily life can make a real impact towards a greener future.
