Green Glass Green project, HK Dumper Truck Drivers Association

Green Glass Green is an initiative started by The Hong Kong Dumper Truck Drivers Association and funded by the Hong Kong Government’s Environment and Conservation Fund. The Hong Kong Dumper Truck Drivers Association is a union. Many of our members haul construction and demolition waste from construction sites to transfer stations and landfills. Witnessing first hand the amount of the waste glass dumped at the fills, the Association launched this project as a step towards a greener and more sustainable Hong Kong. The glass collection has been running since June 2010 and is focused on raising awareness about the problem of waste glass, while actively collecting bottles for recycling.
