From Packaging Industry to Environmental Champion
Share
Our latest episode of The Conscious Cut is here, and this time, we’re diving deep into sustainability beyond fashion. We sit down with Karen Ho, Head of Corporate and Community Sustainability at WWF Hong Kong, to explore her journey from working in the disposable packaging industry to leading corporate sustainability initiatives in one of the world's busiest cities.
Karen shares her insights on the biggest environmental challenges Hong Kong faces, including the struggle to meet renewable energy targets and the complexities of reducing electricity consumption in a city that never slows down. We also discuss the importance of employee engagement in sustainability, clean transportation solutions, and the need for a cultural shift in how we balance convenience with environmental responsibility.
One of the key takeaways? Hong Kong has incredible natural spaces that are often overlooked. Karen and her team at WWF are working to change that through initiatives like the upcoming State of Hong Kong’s Biodiversity 2025 report and awareness campaigns such as Earth Hour, which highlight the urgent need for climate action.
This episode is packed with practical insights for anyone interested in sustainability—whether you’re a business leader, an eco-conscious consumer, or just curious about how we can all do better for the planet.
