【持續發展目標相關tips】
如何係日常生活中實踐可持續發展，用行動愛惜地球？澳門本地積極環保主義者Annie Lao給出了8個有用的tips：
- 調整飲食：飲食前，思考該糧食的生產及運輸過程是否對環境有負面影響；從減少食肉的餐數，漸漸轉為以素食為主的飲食習慣。
- 只買所需品：貫徹可持續消費的意識，並積極探索資源共享/舊物循環再用的可能性。
- 回收垃圾，但不能僅靠回收：回收產業同樣消耗大量水和能源，從源頭上減廢才是最根本的解決辦法。
- 循環再用，減少垃圾：携帶可重複使用的水瓶或外賣盒；在本地零廢物專賣店購買產品；帶購物袋購物；告訴店家不須打印收據，用餐牌的照片代替紙質傳單來減少浪費等等都是有效的行動。
- 出門步行、踩單車或使用公共交通工具：既環保、又鍛鍊身體，仲唔需要搵車位！
- 探索澳門的自然奇觀：得閒欣賞下龍爪角日落，或者爬下山，親親大自然，幫內心充個電。
- 汲取環境保護的知識：慶幸我們生在多媒體時代，有大量與環境議題相關的優質紀錄片、書籍、播客。汲取更多知識，才能更好地呵護地球。
- 行動起來：本地有不少環保組織或可持續發展相關的組織，不妨從義工做起，用行動去擁抱世界。
[Tips related to sustainable development]
How to act upon sustainable development in daily life and cherish the earth better? Annie Lao, an active environmentalist in Macau, has shared 8 useful tips:
- Adjust your diet: Before eating, think about whether the process of food production and transportation has a negative impact on the environment. Start from reducing the meat consumption, and gradually shifting to a plant-based diet.
- Buy only what you need: Stay aware of sustainable consumption, and actively explore the possibility of resource sharing/recycling of used items.
- Recycle what you can, but don’t depend on it: the recycling industry also consumes a lot of water and energy. Therefore, reducing waste from the source is the most fundamental solution.
- Prevent waste with reusable items: bring reusable water bottles or takeaway boxes; buy products at local zero-waste stores; bring shopping bags for grocery shopping; tell the stores that you don’t need receipts and take photos of restaurant menus instead of taking paper menu flyers. These are all effective actions.
- Walk, bike or take public transportation: it is good for the environment and well-being, and you don’t need to find parking space!
- Explore Macao’s natural wonders: Take a leisurely time to enjoy the sunset at Long Chao Kok in Coloane, or do some hikes to get in touch with nature and recharge your energy.
- Educate yourself about environmental issues: We are fortunate enough to be living in the multimedia era, and there are a large number of high-quality documentaries, books, and podcasts related to environmental issues for us to enjoy. Learn more so that we can care about the earth better.
- Take action: There are many local environmental organizations or organizations related to sustainable development. You might start as volunteers and take actions to embrace the world.
