🚨 IUCN正式將帝王企鵝列入「瀕危」物種 🐧

受氣候變化影響，國際自然保護聯盟（IUCN）於今年4月正式將帝王企鵝（Emperor Penguin）列入《IUCN 受威脅物種紅色名錄》。

南極地區的氣候變化正導致海冰提早崩解及流失 🧊 而帝王企鵝需依賴「固定海冰」作為雛鳥育成及換羽期間的重要棲息地。在換羽期，帝王企鵝並不具防水能力，若海冰過早崩解，往往會帶來致命後果。相關研究預測，帝王企鵝的族群數量將於 2080 年代前減半 🐧

帝王企鵝被列為「瀕危」物種，發出了清晰而嚴峻的警號，反映氣候變化正加速生物多樣性的滅絕危機，我們必須持續並進一步加強推動氣候教育與實際行動 💪🏻

中大賽馬會氣候變化博物館一直致力提升公眾對氣候變化的關注，啟發生活態度與行為的轉變。捐款支持博物館的運作與發展，讓更多人認識氣候變化，參與氣候行動，一同為地球出一分力 💚🌍

🎁 凡捐款港幣一百元或以上，即可獲贈印有藝術家鄭逸雅先生「城市與自然 ─ 香港」畫作的眼鏡布乙塊（數量有限，送完即止）。

🚨 Emperor Penguin listed as ‘Endangered’ by the IUCN 🐧

Due to the impacts of climate change, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) officially listed the emperor penguin as ‘Endangered’ on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species™ in April this year.

Climate change in Antarctica is resulting in the premature break-up and subsequent loss of sea ice 🧊 Emperor penguins rely on sea ice that is securely anchored to the coastline, ocean floor, or grounded icebergs as essential habitat for their chicks and during their moulting season, when they are not waterproof. If the ice breaks apart too early, the consequences can be fatal. Studies related to this phenomenon project that the population of emperor penguins may decrease by as much as fifty percent by the 2080s 🐧

The classification of the emperor penguin as an endangered species serves as a significant and urgent indicator that climate change is exacerbating the biodiversity extinction crisis. It is imperative that we continue to enhance climate education and reinforce climate action initiatives 💪🏻

The MoCC is committed to raising public awareness of climate change and inspiring changes in attitudes and behaviour. We invite you to support the Museum’s operations and development with a donation, empowering more people to take climate action and do their part for our planet 💚🌍

🎁 As a token of our gratitude, for any donation of HK$100 or above, you will receive a beautifully designed glasses cleaning cloth featuring the artwork ‘Cities and Nature – Hong Kong’ by the artist, Bernard Chang (available while stocks last).

⛩️ 香港非遺月2026｜🌍 氣候行動

氣候行動不僅關乎科學與科技，也與非物質文化遺產（非遺）息息相關 🌾 世代相傳的耕作知識、工藝與尊重環境的社群實踐，一直引導人類與自然和諧共生。這些古人留下來的生活智慧，正是現代應對氣候變化、提升社區韌性的重要啟示 🌱

為了讓大家從全新角度發掘這些智慧，由康樂及文化事務署主辦、非遺辦事處籌劃的「香港非遺月2026」將於5月30日至6月30日舉行。活動以「香港處處有非遺」為重點，推出一系列內容豐富的節目。中大賽馬會氣候變化博物館很高興繼續與非遺辦事處合作，成為是次活動的合作夥伴，讓公眾及旅客深入認識非遺，實踐「以文塑旅，以旅彰文」的理念 🏛️✨

⛩️ Hong Kong ICH Month 2026｜🌍 Climate Action

Climate action is not only about science and technology, it is also deeply intertwined with Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) 🌾 Generations of farming knowledge, craftsmanship, and eco-friendly community practices have long guided humanity to live in harmony with nature. This ancestral wisdom offers crucial insights for modern climate change adaptation and building community resilience 🌱

To encourage the public to explore these wisdoms from a fresh perspective, ‘Hong Kong ICH Month 2026’, presented by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) and organized by the Intangible Cultural Heritage Office (ICHO), will be held from 30 May to 30 June. Under the theme ‘ICH Around Town’, the event features a series of diverse programmes designed to give the public and tourists a deeper understanding of ICH. The MoCC is pleased to continue its collaboration with the ICHO as one of the partners in this meaningful event, putting into practice the concept of ‘shaping tourism with cultural activities and promoting culture through tourism’ 🏛️✨
