Protecting Nature Valley - A Journey of Habitat Care and Discovery
On a bright and sunny Saturday, Gemtek colleagues visited the Nature Valley Environmental Trust to take part in a journey that combined habitat conservation with a hands-on craft experience. In the morning, we walked along the nature trail, working together to remove Mikania vines (Mikania micrantha), a fast-growing invasive species commonly known as the “mile-a-minute weed” or “plant killer.” In just a few hours, the team cleared 63.5 kilograms of vines, helping the land recover and giving native plants a better chance to grow and thrive.

Lianhua Temple Wetland | Carnivorous Plant Habitat Conservation
Characterized by nutrient-poor soil and abundant groundwater, the Lianhua Temple Wetland is home to many rare wetland plants and provides ideal conditions for carnivorous species to thrive. However, the construction of a check dam reduced water flow, lowering the groundwater level and causing the land to dry out. As the soil became more aerated, organic matter decomposed more quickly, enriching the soil with nutrients and leading to a decline in rare plant populations. Today, the Lianhua Temple Wetland remains the only natural habitat in Taiwan for Drosera indica (Indian sundew). Without active conservation efforts, this species is at risk of disappearing from the region entirely.

Embrace the Ocean, Create a Cleaner Future
On November 16, Gemtek members came together at Zhubei Crescent Bay to participate in a beach cleanup. Despite the light rain and strong waves brought on by Typhoon Usagi, our passion and determination to protecting the ocean remained steadfast. Together, we successfully removed 29.4 kilograms of trash from the beach. Although the amount may seem small, we firmly believe that every effort contributes to meaningful change. It was truly rewarding to work side by side with our colleagues, and we deeply appreciate everyone’s active participation and relentless efforts. Looking ahead, we will continue joining hands to preserve these pristine waters and inspire more people to cherish the beauty of a plastic-free coastline.
