RTHK Hong Kong Connection's filming team interviewed SKLMP

RTHK海廢

Thank you very much to the filming team of RTHK Hong Kong Connection for interviewing SKLMP's Director Prof. Kenneth Leung and two other members, Dr. Jianlin Chen and Dr. Brian Kot. In the video, Prof. Leung introduced how marine plastic litter becomes microplastic, and how microplastic harms marine life and human health when it enters the marine ecosystem and the food chain. Dr. Chen introduced how he used the drones and AI technology to survey the trash in the coastal area and built a database to help clean up the marine litter. Dr. Kot also witnessed the health and survival rate of large wild marine animals such as porpoises, Chinese white dolphins and sea turtles were greatly affected by the marine litter as they accidentally mistook the litter as food. We hope that everyone can “join hands to reduce plastic waste and protect the ocean!”
