“There are many elderly people in the village, so weeding is not easy. That's why I'm always grateful for the cooperation of the Cheongpyeong branch.”
These are the words of Won-ho Lee, the head of Gosung Village in Gapyeong County, Republic of Korea, to the volunteers of the Cheongpyeong branch of the Shincheonji Volunteer Group who worked hard to carry out a weeding service on the 15th August.
The environmental cleanup and weeding service was conducted as part of the ‘Green Nature’ campaign at the entrance to Gosung Village, which is a water leisure mecca whose landscape is filled with overgrown weeds.
About 40 volunteers participated in the activity that day to remove the overgrown weeds on the access road and separated and collected 200 litres of waste abandoned on the road.
Meanwhile, the 'Green Nature' programme strives to pass on a beautiful environment as a legacy to posterity through wetland conservation activities, environmental clean-ups to protect major facilities and cultural assets, environmental recovery, environmental protection public interest campaigns, and the creation of flower paths in illegal waste dumping areas. This is a regular volunteer activity conducted by Shincheonji Volunteer Group throughout South Korea.
