  Hong Kong's beaches clean and pristine
 
The shorelines of Hong Kong are looking clean and pristine thanks, in part, to Cyberport staff who participated on October 18 in the International Coastal Cleanup Challenge, an annual global activity under the Ocean Conservancy's International Coastal Cleanup.

As an environmentally conscious community, Cyberport has, for years, been an avid supporter of similar events through both participation and sponsorship.

Events like "Earth Day at Cyberport", held in April 2008, is an example of how Cyberport raised public concern on environmental sustainability.
