About the Talk

The Zero Carbon Park, Hong Kong's first building designed for zero carbon emissions, was developed by the Construction Industry Council and the Hong Kong SAR government, completing in June 2012. It serves as an exhibition and educational center to promote low-carbon designs and sustainable living. While initially aiming for net-zero emissions through various strategies, significant challenges remain in achieving true zero emissions.
