Boseong-gun Selected for Carbon Neutral Practice Village Community Creation Contest Project

Securing 200 Million Won in National Funds... Joseongmyeon Dongrohyeon Welfare Center Focused on Carbon Neutrality

[Boseong=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Park Cheon-seok] Boseong-gun, Jeollanam-do announced that it has been selected for the Carbon Neutral Practice Village Community Creation Project, hosted by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, securing 200 million KRW in national funding.

Participating in the contest under the theme "Creating Gaon (Central) Village in Joseong-myeon, the Number One Carbon Neutral Area," Boseong-gun plans to establish a space where local residents can build consensus on the necessity and importance of carbon neutrality and take practical actions.

Boseong-gun intends to create a carbon neutrality education center, a practice meeting space, and a resting area for residents vulnerable to climate change through the green remodeling of Dongrohyeon Welfare Center in Joseong-myeon.

Additionally, solar power facilities and solar LED streetlights will be installed in the nearby Joseong Market to promote energy self-sufficiency and reduce heating, cooling, and operating costs.

A carbon neutrality education program will also be operated. Through educational programs directly involving residents, the plan is to strengthen environmental protection awareness and develop continuous carbon neutrality practice measures.

This Carbon Neutral Practice Village Community Creation Project was promoted to establish a carbon neutrality practice base through voluntary and proactive participation of local residents and to build consensus on the necessity of carbon neutrality. Sixteen villages nationwide were selected through the first document screening and the second presentation screening among basic local governments.

A Boseong-gun official stated, "We aim to become a green leading village where people, environment, and space harmonize through daily carbon neutrality practices, and we plan to expand carbon-neutral living practices through environmental conservation awareness education for residents."
