9月26日香港無冷氣夜2013
得到273間學校 15間大學及大專學院 超過165間公司參加
超過7萬家庭及大學宿生 以行動減輕全球暖化
環保觸覺於9月26日晚上舉行第四屆「香港無冷氣夜2013」，得到社會各界包括企業、學校及市民支持，共有273間學校（包括111間幼稚園、105間小學、57間中學）、15間大學及大專學生參與。另外，超過165間公司及機構支持參加，承諾向員工全力推動；接近500幢大廈及屋苑也積極宣傳。
據本會登記系統的數據，超過7萬5千個家庭參加無冷氣夜。參考電力公司提供之數據，當晚最少已節省60萬度電，推算發電廠也減少排最少420公噸二氧化碳。
本會認為活動達到預期效果，參加人數亦接近預期目標，成績令人滿意。希望透過「香港無冷氣夜」，以少用冷氣作為切入點，喚起大家關注家居用電量年年上升，令市民能夠反思人常生活用電模式，減少濫用空調，明白節約能源的重要，從而身體力行減少溫室氣體排放，加強環保意識。
期望大家可繼續以行動節能減碳，減少依賴冷氣，只要大眾明白「無冷氣」的重要性，除了減少溫室氣體排放外，亦可避免將熱氣排放到室外及鄰居。

From our registration record, over 75,000
households and university students signed up for the No Air Con Night 2013. Refer
to the data provided by the electricity
generators,
the decrease of the electricity consumption was at
least 600mw/h in total and reduced 420 tons of carbon dioxide emission.
We are satisfied with the outcome since it is very close to our objective. “No Air Con Night” as an energy saving event is to promote the wise use of air conditioning, in order to lower the emission of greenhouse gases by rethink our energy consumption habit.
We hope all of you to put the energy saving practices, especially the abuse of air con, into the green living for protecting our environment through the No Air Con Night. We should lower the emission of carbon dioxide as well as the heated air by air con in our urban environment.
