Do you know that coffee grounds from your daily coffee could be upcycled to be a piece of soap? Coffee soap can replace chemical detergent, especially those for washing dishes and shirts, to remove stain and oil. The Green Questers are organizing a Coffee Grounds Soap Making Workshop. In the workshop, you will make your own piece of Coffee Grounds Soap and learn about the environmental impacts of food waste from Eco-Greenergy.

2. Tai O Dolphin Trip and Cultural Tour (6 Nov 2022)
We advocate for Ocean and Culture Conservation. According to Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department, there are only 32 Chinese White Dolphins left in Hong Kong. Alongside with the Construction of the Third Runway, the habitats of dolphins will be further affected. During the Tai O tour, Hong Kong Dolphins Conservative Society guided us on watching dolphins in a distance on a mountain, which would not cause any harm to the dolphins and at the same time enjoy the stunning view of Lantau Island. And members from Lantau Cultural workshop demonstrated to us the mystery side of Tai O from the perspective of local residents.
