The recently published 2013 Hong Kong Business Survey on Energy Efficiency and Climate Change revealed that more and more local SMEs are taking actions to combat climate change. But, do you know how climate change impacts are being tracked down? What climate risks is all about?

At the upcoming BEC Industry Visit to Hong Kong Observatory on 30 June (Monday), scientists there will show us how they collect climate change data. You will also know how risks brought by climate change could turn into loss to the society and businesses. From this visit, we hope participants could identify the major causes of climate change and stimulate the discussion on potential impacts.
