‘Unwrap Our Grocery’ Photo opp in Hong Kong Supermarkets

In June and July 2019, Greenpeace Hong Kong visited 56 Hong Kong supermarkets from 12 chains and collected data on 12,141 items. Greenpeace survey finds that over 50% of extra plastic wrapping is made by the supermarket itself.
Greenpeace urges the supermarkets to set up package-free zones to encourage the consumer to go plastic-free. Plus, supermarkets should examine the volume of plastic used and establish a timetable for plastic waste reduction.
