Polyfoam Recycling Workshop
On 22nd April 2023, the DOGA Community Service Subcommittee along with a group of old girls and their families, volunteered at the warehouse of Missing Link - Polyfoam Recycling Scheme.
It was a fruitful morning where our members sorted bags of plastic wastes and scraped away tapes from styrofoam boxes to facilitate the recycling process. Members learned about interesting ways to differentiate the different types of plastics and witnessed how styrofoam boxes were transformed into valuable tubes of plastics by hot-melting machines. The workshop was a unique channel for our members to better understand the plastic recycling industry in Hong Kong and was also a great reminder to reduce plastic waste at its source.
