[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Kyung-pil] The Wando County Council in Jeollanam-do announced on the 2nd that Chairman Heo Gung-hee participated in the SNS relay campaign “Go Go Challenge,” a plastic-free lifestyle movement.

Chairman Heo Gung-hee joined the campaign on the 26th of last month upon the nomination of the Chairman of Haenam County Council.

The Go Go Challenge, a plastic-free movement initiated by the Ministry of Environment, involves pledging to practice “one thing we must do” and “one thing we must not do” in daily life, then posting photos or videos of participation within a week and nominating the next participant.

Chairman Heo shouted the slogan to reduce disposable products in daily life and protect Wando, the island of health and the capital of clean seas, by using eco-friendly materials for marine farm installations: “No use of Styrofoam buoys, use eco-friendly buoys, NO disposable products, YES eco-friendly products.”

Heo Gung-hee said, “I hope everyone will join in protecting the clean sea, our living environment, by reducing the use of plastic products and practicing the use of eco-friendly products.”

For the next relay participant, he nominated Chairman Kang Chan-won of Yeongam County Council, wishing for the spread of the plastic reduction movement.
