People from the East End also came to visit: Farewell!
Chen Baoqiong, a former district councilor who lives in the East District of Hong Kong Island, went to the Northwest on a hot Sunday because “The Meow Shop is moving. This is the last open day and I want to come and see the factory.” She has visited before and will come again today. Once: “Oh, farewell!”
Today she brought waste paper, shopping paper bags, and drink aluminum foil boxes to the factory. She explained that the special thing about “Miaofang” is its ability to handle paper with heavier glue. Generally speaking, the paper-wrapped drinks that citizens come into contact with in their daily lives are not purely made of paper, but also contain glue and aluminum foil.
She said that there was no factory in Hong Kong to process aluminum foil boxes for drinks in paper packages before. However, after the emergence of “Meow Shop” in the past few years, they would collect such aluminum foil boxes, which made her develop a habit of cutting them open and cleaning them after drinking drinks in paper packages. , recycle.
She believes that recycling is of great significance to society because different countries and regions have recycling plants to process their own waste. Why not in Hong Kong? Hong Kong has it. When landfills were being expanded and incinerators were being built, she asked rhetorically: “Do we need to rely on end-of-pipe treatment to solve the waste problem? I don’t think so. Everyone needs to recycle.”

Middle school students visited a recycling plant together to pick up old books “Tangshan Earthquake”
The student brother did not play around or play around during the holidays. Instead, he went to visit the recycling plant. In the “Miaofang” recycling factory, three middle school students walked together and took a closer look at the old things. The three of them live together in the Yuantiantun area. They first moved a box of waste paper here this morning. After returning home, they moved another stack of waste paper to the recycling plant in the afternoon.
Classmate Zhao said that he rarely has the opportunity to enter the recycling plant. He wanted to see how the factory operates, see the recycling machines, and see if there are any old items he needs. He took an old computer monitor and some old books, including “The Great Tangshan Earthquake.”
Classmate Liang said that they are not very environmentally friendly, but at about 10 o’clock this morning, they brought a box of waste paper, and after returning home, they brought another pile of waste paper in the afternoon. There is a kind of passion and practice.
Ask a classmate what significance the recycling plant has to society? Students said that it can help more people understand the value of environmental protection, and also allow them to reflect, “When items are no longer used, the first choice is not to discard them.”
If there is a general education, this day would be their “other learning experience.”
