Doosan Fuel Cell and Iksan City Collaborate on 'Ecological Wetland Park Maintenance' Social Contribution Activity

Planting Approximately 3,000 Shrubs

Doosan Fuel Cell announced on the 30th that on the 26th, its executives and employees conducted a social contribution activity called ‘Ecological Wetland Park Maintenance’ at Yucheon Ecological Wetland Park near the Doosan Fuel Cell headquarters in Iksan-si, Jeonbuk.

Doosan Fuel Cell executives, employees, and local residents who participated in this event planted about 3,000 shrubs such as Zelkova trees, Azaleas, Golden Euonymus, and Arrowwood using 25 million KRW funded by Doosan Fuel Cell employee funds and the Green Iksan Movement Headquarters foundation. The planted shrubs are expected not only to help reduce carbon emissions in the long term but also to serve as habitats for various organisms and provide a pleasant environment for local residents.

To raise funds, Doosan Fuel Cell conducted an eco-friendly campaign called the ‘Green Walking Challenge’ from the 13th to the 27th. The Green Walking Challenge is a campaign that promotes personal health and protects the environment by reducing carbon emissions in daily life through walking instead of using public transportation or vehicles for short distances.

A total of 353 participants, including Doosan Fuel Cell executives, employees, their families, and partner company employees, recorded 35.69 million steps, achieving the target of 30 million steps ahead of schedule. During the campaign period, Doosan Fuel Cell contributed to reducing carbon emissions by 475 kg, which is equivalent to the amount of carbon absorbed in one year by 72 thirty-year-old pine trees.

A Doosan Fuel Cell representative said, “The Green Walking Challenge, held twice a year, has seen an increasing cumulative number of steps with each session, and the shrub planting activities have expanded to areas near regional business sites, which is very meaningful. Doosan Fuel Cell will continue to promote various social contribution activities such as carbon reduction, ecological environment preservation, and biodiversity expansion in cooperation with local governments where our business sites are located.”
