Green Sense, established in 2004 and registered as Charitable Institutions in 2010. We aim to point out the non-environmental friendly practice in society through research and monitoring. We enhance the environmental consciousness by education and publicity, in order to ultimately achieve an environmental friendly society, for the sake of our next generation.
In the past seven years, Green Sense opined over a hundred issues such as urban planning, energy saving & carbon reduction, waste recycling, protection of marine ecosystem, reducing the use of disposable utensils, stop abusing air conditioning, etc. We also monitor governmental and corporate operations and provide suggestions to improve their environmental performance. Furthermore, we promote environmental education to schools so as to foster the youth for contributing a greener society in the future.
