[Goethe-Institut]“COVID-19 MUST BE USED FOR A GREEN CHANGE”

[Goethe-Institut Korea] In times of Corona, the air in Korea has improved – but the mountains of rubbish are growing. So how can the country still make a green change? An interview with Korean environmentalist Jieon Lee.

Since the coronavirus hit Korea, the wind of change has been blowing through Korean society. Activity has declined at factories in South Korea and in China, and the air, which just last year was often thick with smog due to suspended particulate matter, is markedly cleaner. Meanwhile, however, more and more concerned citizens warn of a new refuse crisis amid growing heaps of discarded face masks and packaging waste from online shopping and food deliveries.

This scenario prompted South Korean President Moon Jae-in to announce in May 2020 that the Korean “New Deal” to revive the economy must include a “Green New Deal”. On 14 July 2020, the South Korean government announced a comprehensive roadmap for the New Deal, including a raft of specific measures for its Green New Deal. We met with Jieon Lee, Climate and Energy Coordinator at the Korea Federation for Environmental Movements, and talked about the environmental impact of COVID-19 in Korea and the Green New Deal.
