保育綠海龜
Conservation of
Green Sea Turtles
你知道香港曾經發現綠海龜的足跡嗎？香港哪個海岸會吸引綠海龜產蛋呢？ 綠海龜其實是世界第二大的海龜，亦是唯一一種在香港有繁殖記錄的海龜品種。然而，綠海龜經常被魚網纏繞、誤食海洋垃圾和被船隻螺旋槳割傷等。
Do you know that green sea turtles can be found in Hong Kong? Do you know which coast in Hong Kong attracts green sea turtles to lay eggs? The green sea turtle is the second largest turtle on earth and also the only species that has breeding records in Hong Kong. However, they are often killed by ghost nets, marine debris and ship propellers.

Director, Aquameridian Conservation & Education
Sharon has been motivated to participate in professional marine research, from a non-specialist to a follower of Dr. Sylvia Earle, a famous oceanographer and explorer. This fabulous meetup has led her to the marine research and education pathway. One of her achievements was to present the more recent motion in May 2018 to increase the protection for Green Sea Turtles within Hong Kong waters, which was met with unanimous support through Hong Kong's Legislative Council.
