[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chunhan] GS Retail announced on the 4th that the Green Savers, composed of store owners and store managers, practiced eco-friendly activities and reduced approximately 900kg of carbon dioxide in one month.

The Green Savers, selected in January this year, carried out eco-friendly activities that could be practiced on-site at GS25 and the supermarket GS The Fresh over four weeks. The main activities included ▲encouraging the use of reusable eco-bags ▲saving energy by lowering indoor temperatures ▲promoting the use of mobile receipts ▲separating recyclable materials ▲recycling scrap paper.

By aggregating the eco-friendly activities practiced and shared by the Green Savers and reflecting the conversion index presented by the Ministry of Environment, it was analyzed that about 900kg of carbon dioxide was reduced. In particular, encouraging customers to use reusable eco-bags was the most prominent practice.

A GS Retail official said, “There are many small but feasible eco-friendly activities around us,” adding, “With the belief that small actions can accumulate to yield great results, we plan to train 60 Green Savers by the end of the year to encourage more people to participate, and through this, contribute to laying the foundation for ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management.”
