Guests also took part in sharing sessions on Hong Kong’s
biodiversity, and see juvenile horseshoe crabs up-close to learn about
the ecology and conservation of these ‘living fossils’ at information
booths hosted by participating schools of the Juvenile Horseshoe
不少遊人亦參與由本地保育專家主持的講座，認識 Crab Rearing Programme.
香港豐富的生物多樣性；並參觀由「馬蹄蟹校園
保母計劃」參與學校所設置的攤位，近距離觀賞 Upcycling Arts for Marine Conservation
年幼馬蹄蟹，學習這些「活化石」的生態和保育知識。
In addition, OPCFHK partnered with local artists to create a three-
metre long green sea turtle sculpture built from approximately 1,000
plastic water bottles collected across Hong Kong. As green sea
turtles are among the most affected by marine plastic pollution, the
sculpture signified the severity of the issue, and served as a reminder
of the harmful effects of plastics on marine ecosystems. Guests were
also invited to pledge to live a plastic-free lifestyle and help rebuild
the green sea turtle’s habitat.
As a special bonus, members of Friends of the Foundation were
invited to join the Emerald Discovery Tour, a complimentary in-park
ecotour to see some of Ocean Park’s amazing wildlife up-close.
Participants could upload information about the many plants and
animals they saw along the way using the popular iNaturalist app and
contribute to a global ecology survey.

升級再造藝術宣揚海洋保育

此外，保育基金與本地藝術家合作，以約一千個在
本港不同社區收集的即棄膠樽，製成一座三米長的
綠海龜雕塑。綠海龜是其中一種遭受海洋塑膠垃圾
污染威脅的物種，這件藝術品帶出全球塑膠垃圾
污染問題已非常嚴峻的訊息，並提醒大眾，塑膠對
海洋生態系統帶來的破壞。我們進一步邀請園內
遊人於現場許下承諾，一起實踐無塑生活及協力
重建綠海龜的棲息地。

「基金之友」會員更可免費參加「尋『寶』之旅」
導賞團，發掘海洋公園內的野生動物和植物，並將
動植物的資料上載至 iNaturalist 生態紀錄應用程式，
為全球生態調查出一分力。
