Wood is a natural raw material that we have at our fingertips. We consume a large amount of wood and paper every day. How can we reduce wastage, recycle and give new life to wood or used paper? CITIC Pacific held an environmental protection workshop for volunteers and elderly to learn about recycled wood, understand how to make good use of readily available wood, and experience the recycling of paper products.

The representative of the Rooftop Carpenter explained how wood can be recycled, and shared how recycling helps people relax. "Tumi Ishi" challenge not only provided participants entertaining experience, but also introduced the concept of sustainability  and the importance of reducing wood usage to protect the environment. 

The second part is an upcycling paper coaster workshop. Participants gained a lot of environmental protection knowledge and recycling technique. The elderly and the volunteers spent a delightful afternoon together. Another highlight of the workshop was that it was host by 50+ instructors who received training in "Plan & Go" programme. The workshop allowed them to put their knowledge into practice by demonstrating their craftsmanship. At the same time, they shared how they became craftsmen and handcrafts stallholders, which demonstrated that there is no end to learning. The participants were moved and motivated to maintain vitality and live a wonderful life.
