Written by P Li Ying, RC of Macau
On April 1 and 2, the Rotary Club of Macau, together with 13 university students from Macao, completed the “Together We Go Eco: Shenzhen Study Tour” in Shenzhen. The event is one of the follow-up activities to the “Together We Go Eco: Our Carbon Neutral City Design Contest” organized by the Rotary Club of Macau and supported by Sands China and Green Future. The delegation visited the Shenzhen Maozhou River Comprehensive Ecological Restoration Project and the Qingping Ancient Market Renovation and Repair Project in Baoan District, Shenzhen, and the BYD headquarters in Pingshan District, Shenzhen.
The “Our Carbon Neutral City Design Contest” for Macao university students was held on March 25 at the Venetian Macao’s Adelson Advanced Education Center. It was aimed at raising awareness among Macao students on carbon neutrality, stimulating their creative thinking, and promoting sustainable development toward the vision of a carbon-neutral city. The Macao Polytechnic University team “No Surplus Food Gets Wasted” won the contest with their proposed mobile phone App targeting catering companies to deal with food waste in Macao. A University of Macau team called “Anchored Island” finished second with their dual-function solar battery/lighting system for commercial building surface that lights up at night. The third place is won by a Macau University of Science and Technology team called BTU. They proposed a green modularized roof garden project on Macao’s residential buildings that can facilitate nature courses for children. Two honorable mentions were given too, with one team proposing a carbon credit account for local residents and another team proposing a platform for pet owners to go green with locally sourced pet food and other pet products.
