The first group of supporters consisted of 20 university students from Gyeongsan City. Since the launch ceremony in March this year, they have carried out a variety of activities, including producing team-based carbon neutrality promotional content, conducting an urban railway promotion campaign, operating a booth at the Jain Dano Festival, supporting joint housing participation in the carbon neutrality points program, and organizing a carbon neutrality capacity-building camp.

The ceremony proceeded with an opening and national pledge, a greeting from the center director, a review of 2025 activities, and the awarding of certificates. During the review, the achievements in carbon neutrality practices were shared, including team content production and citizen-targeted promotions and campaigns.

According to a satisfaction survey, the overall satisfaction score was 4.56 points, and the improvement in understanding of carbon neutrality was 4.71 points.

Seo Jeongin, Director of the Gyeongsan City Carbon Neutrality Support Center, stated, “The first group of carbon neutrality supporters contributed to the natural spread of a carbon-neutral culture among citizens through a wide range of activities, from everyday practices to participation in local events. Next year, we will continue to expand citizen-participatory carbon neutrality programs led by young people.”
