[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] The Sancheong-gun Volunteer Center in Gyeongnam announced on the 29th that it conducted a ‘Carbon Neutrality Practice Pledge Campaign’ promising to join efforts to cool the Earth.

This Carbon Neutrality Practice Pledge Campaign was organized by the Gyeongnam Volunteer Center and hosted by the Sancheong-gun Volunteer Center as part of a joint action by 18 city and county volunteer centers in Gyeongnam to respond to the climate crisis.

The ‘Carbon Neutrality Practice Pledge’ includes seven actionable items in daily life: using public transportation, unplugging unused devices, maintaining a healthy indoor temperature (26°C in summer, 20°C in winter), reducing food waste, reducing the use of disposable products and plastics, reducing meat consumption about once a week, and separating recyclables for disposal.

Participants in this campaign wrote the carbon neutrality practice pledge and received naturally dyed handkerchiefs prepared by volunteers.

The naturally dyed handkerchiefs were dyed directly by volunteers from the Sancheong Volunteer Center to appeal for participation in reducing disposable product use.

The Sancheong-gun Volunteer Center plans to continue various campaigns to raise awareness of climate and environmental changes as well as promote low-carbon methods that can be easily practiced in daily life.

Meanwhile, carbon neutrality means minimizing greenhouse gas emissions that cause global temperature rise and increasing carbon sinks to make the net greenhouse gas emissions ‘0’.
