It is no denying that we tend to miss our good old days as we find it difficult to maintain our relationships with people and stuff when time flies. Is it possible to ‘rebuild the old good’? Greenpeace believes everything can be rebuilt – whether it is a piece of cloth or a dying relationship – and will bring its upcycled truck to PolyU campus to prove how this actually works. Its handcrafted wooden truck is made from disposed wooden boards, red wine boxes and secondhand bike tires, and will make a stop at PolyU to offer free clothing repair, upcycling and alternation services. Come to check it out!
人愈大，與人或物的關係都愈來愈難維繫，能令人心動過的，都想與其細水長流。
綠色和平的這架流動紡車證明「舊好可以重修」 – 這架以舊卡板、紅酒箱、二手單車輪升級再造的重修舊好紡車將走進理大校園，由時裝設計師及裁縫替大家縫補改衣，歡迎你來一起體會!

“My home is so messy! Why can’t I ever finish tidying it up?” Most of us have come across this question. The answer is very simple – we are buying too much. We are tricked to believe that buying and owning bring us happiness. Businesses bombard us with waves of festive discounts and promotions and we shop way more than we need. Subsequently, such excessive stuff get buried deep inside our wardrobes.
How would you handle all of these “rubbish”? Would you keep them at bay or get rid of them and live a more peaceful life? Join our talk and learn how to differentiate needs and wants and to stay a more fulfilling ‘feelmore’ lifestyle by running away from compulsive shopping.
「明明新年才收抬好，為甚麼不足幾個月就滿屋雜物，怎也清不完？」相信大家也曾經問過自己這個問題。其實原因很簡單，我們常以為「愈買愈快樂」，希望透過好看的衣服帶來自信、獎勵自己，特別遇上聖誕、新年等節日促銷和優惠夾攻下，衝動網購或購物買下的「瘦了才穿得下」衣服，最後塵封在衣櫃裏。然而，即使得物無所用，我們仍捨不得丟棄，最終雜物滿屋、衣櫃「泥衫傾瀉」。
真正的「執屋」並不是移動物件，而是在整理過程中反思購物習慣，學懂斷、捨、離，區分想要和需要，重塑自我風格，才能一勞永逸。歡迎來到我們的「執出好生活講座」，學懂執屋妙法，為衣櫃帶來小轉念，為生活帶來大改變！

We all have to pay more attention to oceans conservation and you are invited to join this beach cleaning activity. It contributes to marine conservation efforts not merely by removing wastes from oceans, but also educating participants on the importance of oceans. Through picking up wastes on beaches, classifying and weighing wastes, and reflecting upon results, participants are expected to recognize the seriousness of ocean trash pollution and learn ways to protect our oceans, and ultimately, change their daily behaviours.
Reminders:
- Bring enough clothes as the weather may be cool and windy.
- Bring your own food and water. Please use reusables like water bottles and handkerchiefs instead of disposables to help reduce waste at source.
- Bring a backpack to carry your own belongings for more convenient movement on the beach.
- Wear clothing that are light and can be made dirty. Take a change of clothes with you if needed.
- Wear closed-toe shoes to protect your feet from any sharp objects on the beach.
- Bring a raincoat, water-proof jacket or umbrella if the weather is unstable.
- Wear light long-sleeved clothes to avoid mosquito bites. Bring natural mosquito repellents if needed.
- Take good care of the environment. Do not make damage or take away natural objects like plants, shells, and rock pieces.

An award-winning film, Plastic China tells the story of an unschooled 11-year-old girl Yi-Jie. She is a truly global child who learns the world through the United Nations of Wastes with her working parents in a recycle workshop thousand miles away from their mountain village home-town. Going to school is all she is longing for. The film also looks at the life of the ambitious boss of the workshop, Kun, who works so hard to better the life of his family.
Through telling the story of these two families, the film explores how the wastes affect their lives, unveils their dilemma and choices of suffering from irreversible damages on life versus just to make a living. It appears inevitable and plastic wastes simply exist. Such wastes are with them, and with us all.

耗時五年拍攝，導演王久良去年憑藉《塑料王國》一舉榮獲IDFA評審團特別獎，更向國際投下了一顆環境與社會問題的震撼彈。今年年初，《塑料王國》再度於日舞影展驚豔四座，並陸續拿下各大影展大獎，然而，在國際上引起廣大熱議的同時，「塑料王國」四字卻也成為了大陸地區的網路敏感詞，廢棄塑料所帶來的龐大困境，似乎就此消失在討論範圍中。
事實上，中國大陸是目前世界上最大的廢棄塑料「進口國」。全球各地的廢棄塑料大批運往內地，為這座「世界工廠」帶來了製造廉價商品所需的原料，同時也為這片土地帶來了巨大的環境災難。
《塑料王國》聚焦於一名12歲的中國小女孩「依姐」，她的童年被來自世界各地的塑膠垃圾填滿。丟棄的美國報紙、法國礦泉水瓶、德國玩具，就是她的「王國」，而她從未有機會脫離這座廢棄物構築的「家」，像一般孩子們一樣上學、交朋友、享受成長的過程。過去四年裡，依姐不斷試圖突破眼前的困境，但她的命運，卻如同這個邊緣化的產業一樣，變得越發難解……

Art in nature education
The power of art education is that no one will create the same artwork. In the past, the nature education in Hong Kong is just about transferring the knowledge. So, what are the advantages of integrating art creation and nature education? This seminar will discuss why and how to integrate art in nature education, and share the implementation of the concept of Japanese art festival in Hong Kong.
自然生態藝術教育
藝術教育有股獨特的力量，不會如工廠倒模般造出一式一樣的作品。過去在香港的自然教育一直處於知識層面的傳遞，假如在自然生態藝術教育中融入藝術元素會帶來什麼好處？是次講座會深入探討這個課題，亦會分享日本大地藝術祭概念在香港的實踐。
