Extreme Trash Collection
For cleaning up the Hong Kong coast through adventures
Esther is a co-founder of the Adventure Clean up Challenge: the first multi-disciplinary sports event with an environmental purpose. She founded the ACUC after she climbed the entire 80 km coastline of Hong Kong Island alongside her husband, Paul, (who is also a 2019 Green Warrior!) during which they encountered 163 heavily polluted areas. This adventure is documented in the film The Loop. During the most recent Adventure Clean Up Challenge, 1327 bags of trash were collected, two tonnes of bulky items were removed, and over 840 volunteer hours were clocked. Now that’s what we call making an impact! Esther is currently busy organising the next Adventure Challenge.
