Magistrate His-Wei Chou (台北縣長周錫) sincerely invites members from the ECCT, AmCham and BCCT to visit Lujiao River Constructed Wetland (鹿角溪人工濕地) on Saturday, May 9, 2009 to understand the progress of wetland renovation in Taipei County and to relax from busy work.

Dr. Jane Goodall, a famous environmentalist, was also impressed by the sewage treatment of the Constructed wetland when she visited the Lujiao River Wetland on Nov. 25th, 2008. The wetland has changed the environment of the neighborhood and cleaned the wasted water from the community nearby. The schools around the area have also combined the local cultures with ecological training in the system. Taipei County is building an environment education center to combine wetland ecology with other conservation resources to create a center for a long-term promotion of sustainable environmental education, protection and research, trying everything to make a happier and healthier tomorrow.

The trip of Lujiao River Constructed Wetland will not only be guided by professional narrators but also be held in the form of garden party. Variety of activities like biking, making kites or little sky lanterns will be at your choice in this trip.
