What is MENGO Green Hunt?

www.mengo.org


MENGO is a network of 17 Environmental Civil Society groups
 working on environmental protection and sustainability
development. We are organising a Green Hunt focusing
on the 3R’s and public transportation. This is a public
event where teams will be flagged off to use the monorail
Raja Chulan a walking distance from The Weld, Kuala Lumpur.

MENGO is a not for profit organization.

The Hunt will be held on 25 June 2011 in conjunction
with World Environment Day celebrations.  This hunt will
have a low impact on the environment and promotes a low
ecological footprint. This hunt is focused mainly on
sustainable transport with a zero waste production. All
materials that will be used for the hunt will be on recycled
materials, consumables with minimum packaging,
reducing use of plastics in order to minimize waste generation.

The hunt will consist of categories that utilize public
transport by foot, bus and rail (LRT and Monorail). 
The participants to the Hunt will have a fulfilling
experience which stimulates them to care for Mother
Earth and the conservation of precious natural resources
that are fast depleting.

MENGO Green Hunt 2011

Malaysian Environmental Non Governmental Organizations (MENGO), a network of 17 organisations that involved in sustainable development and environmental protection, will be organising its 3rd annual Walk n Hunt event which is also known as MENGO GREEN HUNT 2011. This year’s event will be bigger and more meaningful as it is also the 10th anniversary of MENGO coalition.

MENGO GREEN HUNT is held annually every June in celebration of World Environment Month. It is the first big scale public treasure hunt event in Malaysia that promotes green living and low carbon footprint. In conjunction with MENGO 10th anniversary celebration, it will be a 2-Day event on 24th & 25th June 2011, which will be showcasing environmental causes by our 17 members on the first day and the Walk n Hunt on the 2nd day.

This hunt will have a low impact on the environment and it promotes a low ecological footprint. It focused mainly on sustainable transport with a zero waste production (by foot, bus and rail).  The adopted approaches and executions of the hunt are based on use of recyclable items, educational questions and exemplary green practices.
