Busan Office of Education Operates 'Ecological Environment Student Club Action Group'

38 Elementary, Middle, and High School Environmental Clubs, Over 650 Participants

Busan students take the lead in responding to the climate crisis.

The Busan Metropolitan Office of Education (Superintendent Ha Yun-su) announced on the 7th that it will operate the Carbon Neutrality Practice "Ecological Environment Student Club Practice Group," involving 38 environmental clubs and 647 elementary, middle, and high school students by the end of the year.

This practice group is operated to lay the foundation for creating a culture of practicing carbon neutrality in daily life.

The group participates in environmental experience programs within schools and focuses on monthly tasks that can be practiced in daily life, such as at school, to promote carbon neutrality.

These students engage in carbon neutrality activities such as ▲using personal tumblers instead of paper cups ▲using sochang handkerchiefs instead of tissue or wet wipes ▲not leaving food waste ▲saving energy ▲recycling waste.

The Busan Office of Education plans to hold a "beverage truck" event, distributing drinks to students who carry tumblers, selecting clubs that have participated diligently in the practice group activities.

Ha Yun-su, Superintendent of Busan Metropolitan Office of Education, said, "The practice group activities will serve as a foundation for creating a culture of carbon neutrality practice in which not only students but also the local community respond together to the climate crisis," adding, "The Office of Education will spare no support to enable the educational community to take small daily actions toward carbon neutrality."
