[Asia Economy Reporter Jeon Jin-young] Amid ongoing discussions on climate crisis response and carbon neutrality, the National Assembly has declared its commitment to leading eco-friendly management by creating a ‘paperless National Assembly’ by 2030.

The ‘Eco-friendly National Assembly Promotion Team (Head Jo Yong-bok)’ under the Secretariat of the National Assembly announced that it will implement a ‘3-phase roadmap for creating an eco-friendly National Assembly,’ focusing on ▲Zero-Waste National Assembly, ▲Eco-friendly Green Energy National Assembly, and ▲An Eco-friendly National Assembly Practiced by Everyone Together.

According to this roadmap, the National Assembly aims to achieve a fully ‘paperless National Assembly’ through digital devices by 2030 and increase the purchase rate of eco-friendly green-certified products to 100%.

Furthermore, all shared vehicles within the building will be completely replaced with eco-friendly vehicles, and an eco-friendly system capable of independently reducing greenhouse gas emissions will be established.

Secretary-General Lee Chun-seok explained the background of establishing this eco-friendly National Assembly plan, stating, “If the National Assembly takes the lead in eco-friendly management, its achievements can spread throughout the Republic of Korea,” and added, “Each member of the National Assembly should think of themselves as a pioneer of Korea’s green movement and work together to create ‘Eco-friendly National Assembly 2030.’”
