Combating Desertification in Inner Mongolia/Turning Deserts into Ecological Farmland
Human activities contribute to pollution as well as combat pollution. Hence, we can never take economic activities out of the equation. All efforts in Zero Pollution should take that into consideration. Our presentation is to report the our experience in Tree Planting in Inner Mongolia deserts and how it fits in the circular economic/ecological chain. This is to demonstrate it is economically beneficial to tie solar energy, fish farm, agri-forestry and human lives together.
Promoting Regenerative Farming in Hong Kong
Be just to earth for the good of beings is our motto. And Beings are not just us, human. It includes microorganisms in soil, insects, plants and all living things on earth. To do that, we work with soil. In this presentation, we share our experience and success story of two farms we work with.

We hope to see success stories of other 4 per 1000 members and see if we could adopt their methodologies, approach and technological advances in our context.
2.Solidarity - Twin-Regions
The twin regions concept aims to optimize the use of resources to address the global climate crisis and other pressing issues by promoting international solidarity and massive, empowered, self-reliant and equitable citizen participation. A Twin-Region is a pair of communities that are complementary in terms of green house gas emissions and sequestration potential. They pool their recourses and collaborate in order to become carbon neutral and to solve other pressing environmental and societal issues, such as biodiversity loss and migration.

Pros and cons
The concept is interesting.
Pros:
- once twin-regions are identified, the regions would be held accountable.
Cons:
- Viable methods are required to measure the carbon credit produced and consumed.

3. Ecological footprint
Status
We collect from local businesses ( soy milk producers, Chinese herbal drink factory, landscape companies) for the organic waste in their production as the inputs for organic compost production. This is used in our RF Farm projects.
Perspective
- conduct educational talks to targeted audience to raise interests.
- Proactive recruitment of youth interested in regenerative farming
- increase outreach to local and international groups to nurture cooperation and collaborations
