Through this agreement, the city has officially launched a standing cooperation network for carbon neutrality, with participation from the policy, industry, civil society, and education sectors.

With the launch of this cooperation network, the city plans to further strengthen its capacity to implement carbon neutrality at the regional level.
A city official stated, "Carbon neutrality is not a task that can be pursued by a single organization alone, but one that requires various stakeholders in the region to share roles and work together," adding, "Through this agreement, we expect Yeosu City’s carbon neutrality policies to be promoted in a more systematic and sustainable manner."
