To reduce plastic waste, National Cheng Kung University has established regulations to minimize the use of single-use plastic utensils and stationery, promoting environmental awareness in daily practices. In line with government policies to reduce plastic use, contracts with vendors will limit the use of plastic shopping bags and straws. During meetings, reusable containers will be used, and participants are encouraged to bring their own utensils to decrease the reliance on disposable containers and cutlery.
The university's procurement team has also launched a green procurement initiative, requiring all departments to prioritize the purchase and use of eco-friendly products. Departments can select reusable items or recycled products from designated procurement categories, thereby reducing the use of single-use items. This includes purchasing recycled paper stationery, reusable toner cartridges, recycled textiles, refillable whiteboard markers, and thermoses instead of plastic containers, all aimed at minimizing waste from the source through regular performance assessments.
