It is the policy
of the Student Residence to show concern for our environment.
Residents
of the community are therefore encouraged to pursue environmentally-friendly living.
Sustainablity Efforts at the Student Residence:
Recycling bins for separation of domestic wastes on each floor
The University is a smoke-free
campus. Smoking on campus is an offence in law. Smoking
is strictly forbidden in any part of the student residence.
Switch off
lights, air conditioners, ventilation fans, kitchen
exhaust fans and hoods and other energy consuming equipment,
such as computers, printers and photocopiers, when not
in use.
Encourage water conservation by turning off dripping
taps.
Maximize use of daylight and natural
ventilation by keeping curtains drawn back and opening
windows when weather permits.
Discourage emissions of indoor pollutants.
Dispose of garbage in the rubbish bins provided for
the purpose at the staircase.
Hygienically dispose of waste and use separate waste
disposal facilities for glass, plastic and paper at the
recycle bins at each floor's common room / backstairs.
Use recycled paper whenever possible.
Donate your used clothes in good
condition and put them into the clothing recycling collection
box. (located at the G/F in between Jockey Club Academy
Hall and Chan Sui Kau Hall)
Show preference for the purchase of equipment which
has energy saving features.
Keep room temperature at 25.5 C
