[Asia Economy Reporter Eunmo Koo] Daesang announced on the 10th that it will participate in the launch ceremony of the public-private cooperation network ‘Zero Seoul Practice Group,’ which aims to reduce environmental issues such as greenhouse gases, disposable products, and food waste to ‘zero.’

Companies participating in the Zero Seoul Practice Group, including Daesang, will cooperate with major environmental policies promoted by Seoul City, such as building energy efficiency, electric vehicle charger distribution, and zero waste, and will also join citizen campaigns responding to the climate crisis. In addition, to activate climate crisis response campaigns such as reducing disposable products, they plan to encourage employee participation by utilizing internal promotional channels.

Earlier, as part of the Zero Seoul Practice Group activities, Daesang sponsored the citizen participation event ‘Jupging-euro Gamtanhae’ (Admiring through Picking) held on the 5th at Banpo Hangang Park in Seoul, where participants picked up trash along the Han River. Starting with the launch ceremony of the Zero Seoul Practice Group, Daesang announced that it will share progress reports on projects by sector regularly and hold forums including a performance report meeting in November, embarking on full-scale cooperation with Seoul City.

Na Gwangju, Head of ESG Management at Daesang, said, “We joined the Zero Seoul Practice Group to actively respond to the global climate crisis,” and added, “We will continue to seek various climate crisis response measures that help reduce greenhouse gases and carbon from a corporate perspective.”
