At the Presidential Committee on Green Growth(PCGG), we believe that green growth is the only option if we are to surmount the difficulties the world now faces in climate change, energy consumption and also economic hardship. Green growth is the opportunity for Korea to develop in a sustainable and responsible manner into one of the truly most advanced industrialized countries in the world.Our specific mission is to spread the vision of low-carbon green growth to all sectors of society in a practical fashion. To this end, the PCGG has recently taken on 20 additional experts from diverse fields such as legislation, finance, culture and arts as well as from the more directly relevant fields of climate change, energy, green technology and green industry.
The green growth vision calls on government, businesses and the broader citizenry to actively participate in national development. This website is therefore a forum for open communication between all parties to ensure the successful implementation of green growth policies.
We are committed to listening attentively to your valued opinions.
Thank you.
