The main work of this project is divided into two sections: the “promotion of green procurement/green life” and “environmental volunteers management”. The first section, promotion of green procurement/green life, corresponds to three major assessments of the Environmental Protection Agency: (1) the government green procurement assessment, (2) private group and corporate green procurement assessment, and (3) county/city performance assessment. Therefore, the project allows New Taipei City to achieve good progress on all assessment items and implementation goals.
Having invested effort early this year, New Taipei City obtained full marks in agency assessments, and the private and county/city assessments are ongoing within timetable. Notable quantified performances include: an agency appointed purchase rate of 99.65%, , green products purchased by 54 private entities reached 218 million, 1,228 new members of green point, providing guidance to 4 businesses participating in the Annual Enterprises Environmental Protection Award.
As for promotional activities and corporate guidance, there were numerous new initiative mid this year, including (1) strengthening collaborations with large-scale retailers and shopping centers, (2) launching a trial project to promote Gold Green Hotel and green tourism, (3) expanding the network of Green-Mark-certified businesses, with hotels and travel agencies. In total, 13 promotional activities were organized, reaching approximately 3,905 individuals.
Additionally, regarding the management of environmental volunteers, this project continued to provide educational training and capacity-building programs. These efforts were integrated with the green tourism concept promoted by the central government. This year, a total of 2 educational courses were organized, with each course attracting over 81 volunteer participants. These initiatives served to enhance the quality of our volunteers.
In summary, this project actively promoted the concept of green consumption and a green lifestyle to government agencies, businesses, communities, and the public through various avenues of guidance and promotion.
