<As a Climate Governor, I Will Directly Chair the 'Climate Crisis Response Meeting'>

Gyeonggi Province announced the 'Gyeonggi RE100' vision on April 24.

The national government is moving backward by lowering the proportion of renewable energy generation and greenhouse gas reduction targets. Gyeonggi Province will set an example through leading climate policies.

Upon announcing the 'Gyeonggi RE100,' I promised to establish a committee for responding to climate crises and personally oversee it. We will derive solutions to climate problems that can be implemented each month, however modest, and build them up steadily.

Finally, we will hold the first meeting on May 17 to keep that promise.

I will directly chair it, and former Minister Kang Geum-shil, Gyeonggi Province's Climate Ambassador, will join us.

We will move forward step by step for a better tomorrow for Gyeonggi Province and the Republic of Korea.
