On Wednesday's Backchat, we'll unfold fast-fashion and its impact on the environment.

NGO 'Redress' has launched a campaign to encourage sustainable fashion, while another Hong Kong-based platform, Open Lab, has introduced an AI-powered system to boost garment recycling. We'll speak to representatives from both organisations. Is sustainable fashion a workable model that can reduce damage to the environment? Or is it just another trend for corporations to 'dress-up' the issue?

After the break, we'll find out more about the proposed Hung Shui Kiu/Ha Tsuen smart mass transit system, which the government is aiming to invite tender for next year. The vast project will include three main routes, stretching some 16 kilometres. Some lawmakers have expressed concern over the project's cost-effectiveness. We'll speak to a government official and see what he thinks.

And staying on the roads - transport authorities have begun replacing all of Hong Kong’s electronic audible traffic signal units to provide greater convenience for those who are visually impaired. We'll hear more about the upgrade and how people can benefit from it.

As always, we want to hear your thoughts. You can call us anytime at 2338-8266, WhatsApp 6899-8518, email backchat@rthk.hk or comment on our Facebook page.

On Wednesday’s show, Megha Chaddah will be talking markets with Barry Wood, RTHK’s International Economics Correspondent and Stewart Aldcroft, Asian Fund Management Industry Consultant.
In Your Money Carolyn Wright speaks with Jo Lodder, founder of JMW properties about investing in Japanese residential properties.
And with a View from Singapore we’ll be joined by Geoff Howie, Market Strategist at SGX.
