The Ministry of Environment aimed to bring people into the outdoors to experience the green journey by connecting with nature. On April 16th, 2023 (Sunday), at the Children's Small Stage in Daan Forest Park of Taipei City, the Ministry organized the 2023 “Zero Waste Green Home, Family Day of Traceless Vegetarian Diet” event under the theme of "Invest In Our Planet" from “Earth Day”. Approximately 456 people participated in the "Invest in Our Planet Mission." Additionally, on June 3rd, 2023 (Saturday), at the Vision Hall of the Ministry of Culture's Cultural Heritage Park, the Ministry conducted the “2023 World Environment Day – Beat Plastic Pollution with Sustainable Diet" event on the theme of “Beat Plastic Pollution” from “World Environment Day". Around 183 people participated in the market of "Reduce Plastic with Goodwill Foods". The two environmental festival-themed events had a total of about 1,406 participants, aiming to help attendees understand how to invest in the planet and limit plasticity through green living actions in aspects such as food, clothing, housing, transportation, education, leisure, and shopping.
To urge the public to become responsible environmental citizens with environmental action and awareness, the Ministry of Environment conducted the second "Environmental Education Green Hackathon" series of events from April to November 2023. The series included activities such as civic cafés, workshops, and project selections to encourage participants to learn environmental knowledge actively and come up with proposals on environmental advocacy initiatives, thereby enhancing their abilities and actions to address environmental issues. In the "Environmental Education Green Hackathon" series of activities, the "Environmental Education Green Hackathon Reboot Camp" was included to communicate accurate environmental protection knowledge and to share ideas on relevant issues. In addition to inviting the public and corporate employees, the event collaborated with the annual "Earth and Editors" activities. It invited editors from various central government fan pages to participate in the event. From April 22nd (Earth Day) to June 5th (World Environment Day), a coordinated marketing campaign was employed to jointly promote the topic of zero-emissions policy. By leveraging the community engagement influence from social media, the event aimed to promote environmental education and rally fans from various government departments' fan pages to work together to protect Mother Earth. The "Environmental Education Green Hackathon Reboot Camp" was held in Taichung, Tainan, and Taipei cities, with a total of 192 participants. “Green Hackathon Creative Selection for Environmental Education" was seeking outstanding initiatives or proposals. A judging panel composed of expert scholars selected 19 teams with a total of 43 individuals for their creative proposals. The selected teams were encouraged to participate in the "Environmental Education Green Hackathon Advanced Boot Camp," where a group of mentors consisting of expert scholars provided guidance tailored to the needs of each selected team, aiming to enhance the feasibility and sustainability of their creative proposals. Following the "Environmental Education Green Hackathon Advanced Boot Camp," there was a shortlisted review of the candidate’s presentation by the judging panel. Twelve teams, totaling 30 individuals, were chosen as award recipients to attend the "Project Performance and Award Ceremony" on November 11th, 2023, at the Hua Shan 1914 Creative Park.
To allure the public into the outdoors and explore high-quality environmental education facilities and community spaces, the Ministry of Environment designed an "Environmental Education Augmented Reality Puzzle Game - Owl's Universe RPG." The game was set in the environmental education facility at "Ciaotou Sugar Refinery Cultural Park," and 1,000 sets of adventure kits (game boxes) were created for teams to access and play for free. The goal was to allow the public to gain awareness of environmental knowledge and understand the environmental education facilities while engaging in the puzzle-solving process, thereby becoming more conscientious regarding these endeavors and committing themselves to a co-existence between natural preservation and the survival of mankind.
