Creation of PANASIA ESG
Carbon-Neutral Forest

Signed an agreement with Busan City
to
create a PANASIA ESG Carbon-Neutral Forest.​

  • # Corporate Donation

Seokdae Waste Landfill,
transformed
into an arboretum
in Haeundae,
Busan to realize
green welfare​

The arboretum, which is scheduled to be completed in 2025 in Haeundae, Busan, with the largest scale in Korea (190,000 pyeong), is an eco-friendly arboretum, transformed from the Seokdae Garbage Landfill, which was a representative abhorrent facility in Busan due to the generation of odors and harmful gases. Currently, it has been partially opened and has become a favorite place for citizens, realizing green welfare.​

Forest created by a private
company
for the first time
in Busan​

PANASIA has donated KRW 200 million to create the PANASIA
ESG Carbon-Neutral Forest in Haeundae Arboretum, which is the
first carbon-neutral forest created by a private company in Busan.
​ ​The word 'carbon neutral' in the name of the forest expresses the
concept of reducing actual carbon emissions to zero by first reducing
greenhouse gas emissions and secondarily absorbing and removing
remaining greenhouse gases through forests, carbon capture/storage
devices, etc. This is part of PANASIA's social contribution activities that
contain the eco-friendly management policy to actively participate in
responding to the climate crisis.​

Trees excellent for carbon
reduction,
selected to create
a carbon-neutral
forest
with a pond​

Tree with excellent carbon gas and fine dust reduction effects,
such as thorn, Korean dendropanax, oriental oak, metasequoia,
and willow, are selected as park trees.
​ ​A variety of aquatic organisms and animals and plants coexist
in the carbon-reducing forest with a pond, and citizens can take
a carbon-free rest on the benches placed here and there.​

Fine dust-free classrooms
for elementary school children​

Carbon-free classroom
forest free from fine dust​

This program helps reduce air pollution by placing fine dust-reducing
plants in elementary school classrooms for children who are
vulnerable to fine dust and carbon dioxide.​

  • # Corporate Donation
  • # Employee Volunteering

Every year, we increase the
number of
carbon-free
classroom forests.​

The classroom forest creation project of PANASIA started in May 2022
with Nokmyeong Elementary School, PANASIA's first Carbon Free
Classroom Forest. We plan to increase the number of beneficiary schools
by one elementary school each year to keep classrooms green for
elementary school students who are vulnerable to fine dust.​

How are beneficiary schools selected?​

At the beginning of each year, we search the current status of fine
dust and ultrafine dust provided by the city of Busan and select the
regions where the fine dust and ultrafine dust warnings were issued
the most in the previous year. Within the regions, elementary schools
adjacent to industrial complexes and large roads are selected as
beneficiary schools, and we hope that these contribution activities will
spread nationwide in the future.​

7 plants to reduce fine dust
per classroom​

According to a study by the Rural Development Administration, three flower pots
of 1㎡ placed in a 20 ㎡ living room can reduce ultrafine dust by 20%.​ A total of 7
trees, including 1 areca palm tree selected by NASA to reduce fine dust, 4 snow
sapphire trees with excellent formaldehyde removal ability, and 2 stuckyi plants
that are effective in blocking electromagnetic waves due to their high negative
ion emission, are placed in each classroom.​​

Teaching elementary school
students about
fine dust and
how to care for plants​

We provide elementary school students with educational programs on
the main causes and dangers of fine dust, and how to deal with them,
so that they can realize the importance and awareness of environmental
issues. We also teach students how to care for potted plants to keep them
interested and help them develop the habit of taking care of potted plants
on their own.​

Employees delivering donations
collected from their salaries
as well as
their helping hands​

PANANURI, an employee volunteer group of PANASIA, conducts the
NANURI Hands Sharing, a volunteer service in the marine environment.
​ To express our gratitude to the citizens and to protect the marine
environment, we deliver donations collected from all employees' salaries
every month and the helping hands of employees who voluntarily
participated. We buy supplies for plogging with the money raised and
protect the marine environment with our own hands.​

We pick up and collect garbage
to protect the marine
environment.​

Plogging service is conducted near coast guard stations or where
purification is needed. ​Employees pick up garbage from the
promenade and around PANASIA barges, and scoop out garbage
from seawater with landing nets.​​

Gratitude to the residents​

Meals and snacks are generously prepared by employees using
their donations. We visited the senior citizen center, fishing village
society, and marine police station in Sokcheon-dong to serve meals and
share warmth. ​Volunteers keep company with the elderly and massaged
their shoulders, expressing their gratitude.
