Gyeonggi-do Promotes Waste Circular Resource Utilization and Activation Service

Gyeonggi Provincial Government

Gyeonggi Province is undertaking a 'Research Project on the Utilization of Waste Circular Resources and Industrial Revitalization Measures' to play a leading role in the transition to a circular economy.

This project focuses on securing circular resources for the creation of a resource-circulating carbon-neutral city in Gyeonggi Province, establishing a Gyeonggi-type resource circulation cluster to build a carbon-neutral industrial base, and proposing zero-waste policy projects to promote the circular economy in Gyeonggi Province.

Based on the results of the project, Gyeonggi Province plans to establish an integrated roadmap for the creation of a resource-circulating carbon-neutral cluster, including waste reduction, resource circulation activation, and industrial development, as well as strategic tasks for the transition to a circular economy in Gyeonggi Province.

Additionally, the project will estimate and forecast the usage of single-use products, set reduction targets for single-use products, and develop reduction policy measures through analysis of the generation and treatment status of single-use products.

Seo Jin-seok, Director of the Resource Circulation Division of Gyeonggi Province, stated, "With this project, we will be able to more systematically implement the measures to reduce single-use product usage that Gyeonggi Province is promoting," adding, "Our goal is not simply to reduce waste but to do our best to transition to a circular economy society that creates new value."
