For example: • How has your experience of participating in the project changed your perception of low carbon living? • What difficulties have arisen in undertaking the work? • How might you take forward this work in the future? • What have you gained personally from the Idea Incubator project? Understanding Low Carbon Living Initial uncertainty: “For visiting flats every week, we were excited to imagine what would happen during the visits – would the households refuse to let us come in? Will we meet some kind households? Our first visit is in a few days and we are looking forward to it” Becoming aware of the concept of low carbon living: “We have done different flat visits and it helped me realize people would live a low carbon lifestyle mainly to save money” Awareness of other factors – such as education “We discovered that the questionnaire is too simple to collect data… so our group has added more questions related to carbon emissions and family size in order to get more meaningful data” Practical Challenges Overcoming the challenge of gaining access to residents: “The response from residents is little, passive or even negative. This is quite different from what we expected at the beginning. We had distributed about 3,000 leaflets and DC office said the response was near zero” Being inventive in order to measure energy consumption: “Since the location of the sockets of the refrigerator and television are behind the refrigerator and the table respectively, we can’t set up the power meters” Involvement in a Practical Project “As a pilot scheme student leader, it offers me a glimpse about how to organise a project, from meeting and communicating with DC offices, contacting the households, to designing posters, leaflets and certificates, etc. To sum up our project, it provides me with an invaluable first-hand experience of visits to local families. Apart from theory learnt from textbooks, it is good to have something practical” "This meaningful project provides us with experience that cannot be obtained from textbooks. I hope in the future we can have other projects like this in other subjects or that this project can be expanded to a larger scale” “Through the incubator, I had a lot of experience like how to arrange visits and to interview people. Moreover, I have the chance to know more about different life style of Hong Kong citizen”. References • Hong Kong SAR. Census and Statistics Department. (2006).

The Fund took over the unspent funds raised by lotteries held under the Government Lotteries Ordinance 1962. Between 1965 and 1975 it received the net proceeds of government lotteries held during those years. The old style lotteries were changed to the Mark Six Lottery in September 1975. The Fund is now mainly funded from this source. 2 Since 1 April 2003, the assets of the Fund have been merged with those of the Exchange Fund for investment purposes and share the same rate of investment return as from that date. Any interest paid by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority is treated as investment income. Disbursements Head 341—Non-recurrent Grants 3 Provision under Head 341—Non-recurrent Grants is to meet the cash flow requirements of approved non- recurrent commitments and for block grants and minor grants. Grants may also be made from this head towards recurrent expenditure provided that the project concerned is experimental and has a limited duration. 4 Authority to approve expenditure under this head has been delegated to the Director of Social Welfare acting on the advice of the Lotteries Fund Advisory Committee, except that the approval of the Financial Secretary is required for commitments for medical or educational purposes or in excess of $4,000,000. Block grants under Subhead 990 Block Grant are disbursed on an agency basis in respect of its subvented welfare services for the purpose of minor capital works not exceeding $500,000 for each service unit and minor capital expenditure on furniture, equipment and vehicles (excluding purchase or replacement of vehicles) with the cost of individual items not exceeding $100,000.
