Jaguar Land Rover Resumes Volunteer Work Creating Hangang Forest "Efforts to Reduce Fine Dust"
[Asia Economy Reporter Changhwan Lee] Jaguar Land Rover Korea announced on the 15th that it conducted a 'Jaguar Land Rover Hangang Forest' creation activity in collaboration with Seoul Green Trust at Ichon Hangang Park in Seoul on the 12th.
Jaguar Land Rover Korea signed a business agreement in 2018 for the 'Citizen Participation Hangang Forest Creation Project' to address urban air quality issues, restore the natural environment of the Hangang River, and secure resting spaces for citizens, establishing a three-year plan to plant and nurture trees.
By the end of 2019, they had planted 1,006 trees and installed benches, maintaining the area steadily; however, activities were suspended last year due to concerns over the spread of COVID-19 and the implementation of social distancing measures.
With the phased recovery of daily life, Jaguar Land Rover Korea employees resumed the previously halted forest creation activities. They planted 501 trees during spring and autumn this year, and with this volunteer activity, planted an additional 100 trees, completing a total of 1,607 trees planted over three years.
