in the widespread adoption of eco-friendly materials across all school publications and major events. The IAU has prioritised the use of FSC-certi ied paper, ensuring responsible sourcing, alongside bio-foamboards and non-PVC materials. Twenty-two digitalised service request forms were implemented by the Accommodation and Facilities (A&F) Unit to replace paper forms. Additional e-displays for class schedules and corporate materials further supported our transition to paperless operations. Waste reduction e orts included recycling programmes for paper, plastic, and cans, and minimising single-use plastics. Learning Centres collaborated with their Building Management Of ices (BMO) to support recycling initiatives and promote shared sustainability goals. We recorded a 2% reduction in electricity consumption. Green measures were integrated across facilities, including LED lighting, motion sensors, and split-type air-conditioning units with environmentally friendly refrigerants. Enhanced insulation and temperature sensors were installed to improve indoor climate control and energy eªiciency, thereby reduce emissions. Water reduction was also prioritised. Auto-sensor faucets and dual- lush toilet cisterns were installed to reduce water usage in toilets. Ecofriendly utensil washers were implemented in specialised teaching venues such as the Food and Beverage (F&B) Education Hub and the Nutrition and Culinary Science Lab to further reduce consumption. The School has continued to promote sustainable transportation by replacing aged vehicles with energy ef icient vehicles, signi icantly lowering fuel consumption and reducing reliance on fossil fuels, which would be an impactful step toward minimising our environmental footprint and supporting climate-conscious operations. Looking ahead, the School remains committed to environmental responsibility. Through continued innovation and collaboration, we aim to embed sustainability across all operations and foster a culture of ecological awareness that re lects our values and supports a greener future. 現於學院的所有刊物和重要活動廣泛使用環保物 料的實踐上,傳訊及拓展部會優先採用森林管 理委員會(FSC)認證的環保紙張,確保原料來 源符合環保責任原則;同時使用可生物降解發泡 膠板及不含聚氯乙烯(PVC)等物料。物業及設 施部已將22份服務申請表數碼化,取代了紙本 表格。各教學中心新設了電子顯示屏,用以顯 示課程表及學院資訊,進一步推動學院過渡至 無紙化營運。 學院的減廢行動包括回收紙張、塑膠和金屬罐, 以及在校園內減少使用一次性塑膠物品。各教學 中心與相關大廈管理處攜手推動回收工作,共 同促進可持續發展目標。本年度整體電力消耗量 已錄得2%減幅。 學院亦將各項設施全面整合至符合環保概念, 包括使用LED照明系統、移動傳感器,以及使 用環保製冷劑的分體式空調設備。透過安裝更高 效能的隔熱層與溫度感測器,有效改善室內氣 溫及提升能源效益,從而達至降排的目的。 節水也是我們在環保方面的優先工作。為減少廁 所的用水量,我們安裝了自動感應水龍頭及雙 掣式沖廁水箱。在餐飲教學中心及營養與烹飪科 學實驗室等特別教室中,更裝置了環保餐具清 洗機,以進一步減少用水消耗。 學院積極支持綠色交通。我們已用節能車輛取代 老舊車輛,大幅節省了燃料消耗及對化石燃料 的依賴。這是為環境減少碳足迹及支持氣候關注 行動的重要一步。 展望未來,我們將繼續肩負環保責任。透過不 斷創新和協作,我們致力將可持續發展理念融 入學院的營運當中,並培養體現學院核心價值、 支持綠色未來的生態意識文化。 Social HKU SPACE was awarded the “Sing Tao Excellent Service Award – Continuing Education” for the 18th year in a row and, for the 12th year in a row, the Reader’s Digest Platinum Award for Trusted Brand.
