On 19 March and 26 March 2026, MSc EHS students participated in a field excursion to Lamma Island, focusing on both environmental conservation and renewable energy development. A key highlight of the visit was Hong Kong’s only commercial‑scale wind power facility, Lamma Winds, where students gained first‑hand exposure to the practical application of wind energy in the local context.
During the visit, students observed various wildlife species, including shorebirds such as the Pacific Reef Heron, Little Egret, and Great Egret along the coastline. Butterfly species, including the Common Bluebottle and Great Eggfly, were also spotted among the flowering vegetation. Through the combination of ecological observations and the study of wind power infrastructure, the field trip enhanced students’ understanding of local biodiversity and the role of renewable energy in promoting sustainable development in Hong Kong.
