Opinions and Questions to be raised by HKBWS on the forum:


1.        We welcome a joint-government policy on environmental protection, which allows more efficient measures carried out on tackling pollution problems and protecting ecologically sensitive areas.

2.        The proposed designation of Robin’s Nest as a country park and proposals of “Green Network” are welcomed. the designation would help the Chinese Grassbird, which Hong Kong is the most important site for the species.

3.        The enhanced protection of coastal environments would be beneficial to wetlands and waterbirds. At present there is no cross-boundary policy on issues such as Environmental Impact Assessment. The present plan would be a good chance to review these policies, and are there solid measures suggested by the current study?

4.        At present movement of most wildlife are blocked by highly developed areas. The study suggest the construction of a "Green network". Apart from enhancing recreational facilities, are there any concrete proposals on how to link protected areas to become a network that can be utilized by both wildlife and humans?


香港觀鳥會將在公眾論壇上提出的意見及問題：

1.        我們歡迎這計劃，可以令打擊污染問題、保護高生態價值地點等各種措施更有效率。

2.        我們亦支持將紅花嶺一帶劃為郊野公園範圍，以及將珠三角郊野聯繫成「綠網」，因為這些措施可以令珠三角地區各種野生生物受惠。香港的高山草地是大草鶯在世界上最重要的生境，其中紅花嶺與梧桐山以至南中國山丘地區的聯繫，對保育大草鶯非常關鍵。

3.        跨境海岸保護措施亦對保育沿海濕地十分有利。珠三角各地沿海濕地面對龐大發展壓力，現時在環境評估制度上各地沒有統一的標準，在政府間的溝通亦十分有限，這些跨境環境問題在本計劃提供的機遇下，應得到妥善處理。本計劃有沒有建議具體方案解決這些問題？

4.        現時被高密度城市發展佔據大部份陸地，陸上野生生物不能走到城市令一邊的郊區。計劃中建議建設的「綠網」有沒有實質建議讓野生動物使用？
