Let's Join the Life Movement! ... Sangju City Saemaeul Association's Resolution to Practice Carbon Neutrality

On the 7th, Sangju City in Gyeongbuk resolved at the Saemaeul Council to participate in the Life Movement 2050 Carbon Neutrality initiative.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Seryeong] Sangju City, Gyeongbuk, held a Saemaeul Council meeting on the 7th and resolved to participate in the Life Movement 2050 Carbon Neutrality practice to respond to the climate crisis.

Carbon neutrality means setting measures to absorb as much carbon dioxide as is emitted, effectively making the net emissions '0'. The Saemaeul Association has engaged in the 'Life Movement to Save the Earth' by practicing tasks in daily life.

These include tree planting, promoting resource recycling campaigns, practicing zero waste to avoid generating trash, participating in carbon neutrality governance, reducing energy and fossil fuel product use by 30%, cutting disposable product use by 30%, shifting citizen awareness through public-private cooperation, and expanding alternative energy for carbon neutrality practice.

On this day, the Saemaeul Association produced and distributed promotional shopping bags for the Life Movement to support its spread and pledged that all Saemaeul leaders would take a leading role in practicing carbon neutrality.

A Saemaeul Association official said, “The Life Movement carbon neutrality starts with changing people's lifestyles,” and added, “Based on the Saemaul spirit, let us steadily practice at home, in the village, and at work to create a community worth living in.”
