On Friday's programme, we began the show by talking to some environment scholars about the High Seas Treaty that came into effect this month. The treaty provides countries with a legally binding framework to tackle threats like overfishing and meet the target of protecting 30 percent of oceans by 2030.
After the break, we looked at efforts to bolster law enforcement in Hong Kong. The police will expand their drone patrol programme to the Peak, Cheung Chau and Lamma Island to enhance crime prevention, crowd control and traffic monitoring capabilities.
Wrapping up our programme, we talked to a wildlife rehabilitation expert from the Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden about the park's latest project to promote nature conservation.
