The Seongbuk Carbon Neutral Learning Center is located on the second floor at 56, Jeongneung-ro 23-gil, Seongbuk District (121.3㎡). Alongside the opening ceremony, a festival titled ‘A Day to Care for the Earth’-an event free of disposables and waste-will be held. The festival will take place at the Jeongneung Market Community Participation Square and will be divided into four zones: Reducing Carbon, Caring for Objects, Living with Nature, and Looking After the Mind. It will feature resident-participation programs such as a shared wardrobe and a moss garden exploration.

The name ‘Seongbuk Carbon Neutral Learning Center’ was selected through a public contest, survey, and internal review conducted until the 13th, reflecting the center’s identity as a hub for environmental conservation and achieving carbon neutrality. A total of 113 name suggestions were submitted for the contest.

Lee Seungro, Mayor of Seongbuk District, stated, “The Seongbuk Carbon Neutral Learning Center will faithfully serve as a hub for environmental education and will become a space where anyone can easily and enjoyably learn how to practice carbon neutrality.”
