Food saving and environmental protection practices × ESG Action

2026-01-08

Last month, we held a seminar at Two Harbour Square in Kwun Tong – “Food Saving and Environmental Protection Practice: From Excess Food to Social Action”, to discuss with tenants and business representatives that food saving is not only an environmental action, but also a social responsibility and a way to connect with people.

Hong Kong discards over 3,000 metric tons of food daily, while approximately one million people suffer from food insecurity.

The food Commons Foundation, through its surplus food recycling program and food ambassador scheme, reduces landfill pressure and carbon emissions, supporting those in need.

ESG's three main dimensions:

- E: Reduce carbon emissions and food waste

- S: Support the disadvantaged and promote inclusion

- G: Establish a culture of responsibility and transparent reporting

SROI: Every $1 invested → Creates $6.5 in social value

Join the "Cherising Food, Helping Others" campaign

Businesses can support this initiative through the following means:

- Donating surplus food

- Hosting employee food conservation workshops/lectures

- Encouraging employee volunteer participation

- Becoming a partner and providing resource support

Let's promote food saving × ESG together and create sustainable social value!

Businesses are welcome to contact us to promote green and inclusive communities!
