The phenomenon of “trolleys and the elderly” is typical in Hong Kong and Asia, behind it are the coupling economic (e.g., incomplete pension system), social (e.g., urban inclusiveness) and environmental (e.g., circular economy and its trade-offs) challenges. Therefore, we need a thinking from the perspective of sustainability (the so called "Triple bottom line", in terms of economic efficiency, social equity and environmental responsibility), to design an inclusive waste management system. This talk will take you a tour to see the sustainability challenges for integrated waste management, and how we could tackle such challenges, with the development of an inclusive policy making.
