Food is more than daily energy - it is closely linked to land, resources, and climate. From production to consumption, every meal carries a carbon footprint and environmental cost, while food waste is often the most overlooked part of the system.
This learning journey is co-developed by Food Angel and Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden, combining expertise in food rescue, redistribution, and sustainable living education within the Hong Kong context. Through a two-step journey - from concepts to experience, and from knowledge to action - students explore the relationship between food, climate and sustainable living.
