The Green Council (GC) is a non-profit, non-partisan environmental association of Hong Kong formed by a group of individuals from different sectors of industry and academia who share a vision to turn Hong Kong into a green city for the betterment of the future.[1]
The Green Label Scheme
The Advisory Committee has four main functions, which are to advise on operational guidelines including product categories and respective product environmental criteria, to oversee the HKGLS application and assessment systems, to approve or disapprove of HKGLS applications and to license or withdraw the use of the HKGLS labels. Whereas the industrial sector plays a major part in the success of HKGLS’s implementation, some applicable industrial organizations have been invited to provide suggestions on the establishment of product categories, application procedures and assessment systems, also to promote the HKGLS to local industry associations.[2]
