[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Jeong Jin-yong, the Superintendent of Education at Geochang Office of Education in Gyeongnam, participated in the "GoGo Challenge" relay campaign to reduce plastic in daily life on the 8th.


Started by the Ministry of Environment in January, the "GoGo Challenge" is a relay campaign where participants pledge one action to stop and one action to start in order to reduce plastic usage in daily life, and then recommend the next participant.


Jeong, who joined the challenge upon the nomination of Pyo Joo-sook, a member of the Geochang County Council, said, "Environmental pollution caused by indiscriminate use of disposable products has become a social issue that can no longer be ignored," and added, "I hope everyone actively participates in reducing the use of disposable products in daily life from now on for the future generations who will live on."



Meanwhile, Jeong nominated Shin Jeong-hee, principal of Geochang Elementary School, and Moon Sam-jong, principal of Geochang Girls' Middle School, as the next participants in the campaign.
