On the eve of the World Health Organization’s World Health Day, which falls under the theme of climate change this year, Greenpeace activists covered their eyes with black cloths and unleash black balloons representing CO2, in front of a banner which says “Edward Yau Letting Go of CO2, Hong Kong Climate in Danger”. The act is to condemn the government of turning a blind eye to uncontrolled CO2 emissions from power plants, which directly impose adverse impacts to the environment and citizens’ health.
