Hong Kong's Climate Action Plan 2050

The government announced Hong Kong's Climate Action Plan 2050 in early October, setting out the vision of “Zero-carbon Emissions ‧ Liveable City ‧ Sustainable Development”. The plan outlines the four major decarbonisation strategies and measures, namely net-zero electricity generation, energy saving and green buildings, green transport and waste reduction.”, and would pursue more vigorous interim decarbonisation targets to reduce Hong Kong's carbon emissions by 50 per cent before 2035 as compared to the 2005 level. To oversee the effective implementation of all these actions, the ENB will set up the Office of Climate Change and Carbon Neutrality to strengthen co-ordination and promote deep decarbonisation. Also, a dedicated advisory committee will be formed to offer advice and promote active participation of major stakeholders including young people.
