Government is preparing a Biodiversity Action and Strategy Plan.
The objective is to better safeguard Hong Kong’s biodiversity, and to contribute to safeguarding the world’s biodiversity.
Our concern is the absence of a comprehensive debate.
Hong Kong’s land supply strategy and conserving biodiversity need to be looked at as one and not two discussions in separate rooms.
There is also an urgent need to reform legislation to protect habitats on private land, as proven by the ongoing land filling and tree felling throughout rural areas and country parks.
The BSAP consultation will conclude mid-nite 7 Apr 2016.
Below are links to the Government website as well as suggestions and form letters to aid your timely response.

政府正在制訂《生物多樣性策略及行動計劃》。
計劃的目標是保護香港的生物多樣性,由此為保護全球的生物多樣性作出貢獻。
但我們擔心有關的計劃缺乏共同的辯論。
香港的土地供應策略和生物多樣性的保育需要作為一個整體看待,不可能分開討論。
同時,我們急須修改法例去保障私人土地上的生境,以阻止現時在鄉郊和郊野公園發生傾倒和斬樹的破壞情況。
《生物多樣性策略及行動計劃》將於4月7日晚上11:59分前截止。
附註的網址是政府相關網頁和各個環團和關注團體的建議和聯署信,希望各位能及時回應。
