Dear Colleagues and Students, 

In order to enhance public understanding of the importance of the oceans and raise awareness about marine conservation, the United Nations has designated June 8 as World Oceans Day. The health of the oceans is closely related with the Earth and human life. The oceans provide us with many services, acting as the lungs of the global ecosystem and supplying half of the oxygen we need to breathe. However, the oceans are now facing increasingly severe threats that require urgent action.  So what can we do for the oceans? We may conserve the oceans by beginning to understand the impact of sunscreen. Let’s explore some more environmentally friendly sunscreen methods:

Dress Casual Summer

Objectives:

Responding to global climate change, we should reduce the power consumption of air conditioners in offices, promote the culture of dressing casual, and promote energy saving as well as emission reduction.

Activity:

Responding to the activity “Waste Reduction and Energy Saving Actions for Civil Servants”, please dress casually if you are not attending official or formal activities.  If staff have to wear uniforms for official reasons, one should choose to wear “lightweight uniform” such as avoid wearing coats or ties to support energy saving while maintaining professional image.

Guidelines for casual dress code:

• Casual wear should be chosen under the premise of dressing in a presentable way, so as to maintain the positive and professional image that a civil servant should have;
• Choose clothing made with lightweight, cool and opaque materials. Plain or light colours are preferred;
• Male staff may wear shirts or polo shirts, while female staff may choose casual wear such as blouses and suit pants;
• Avoid wearing vests, sandals and shorts or other revealing clothes;

Dear Colleagues and Students, 

The United Nations has designated March 22nd each year as “World Water Day”, with the aim of raising global awareness on the importance of freshwater and advocating sustainable management of freshwater resources.  Water conservation starts from the little things in life, which we can easily incorporate into our daily routines. For instance, simply reducing shower time requires minimal effort but yields significant results.  We can protect water resources, let’s start from ourselves! Please refer to the following EP tips “Save Water When Taking Bath”:
