Uncomfortable movement for the earth.

Aren't you happy because of getting warmer?

On 28th, May, Seoul YWCA held a campaign for "Citizen movement for getting rid of ultrafine dust"

Though it was a little hotter, we all worked hard together for the ultrafine dust-free Seoul!
According to the National Census of ultrafine dust Survey conducted on 1008 adults across the country from February 18 to 28 this year. Nine out of ten Koreans (87.2%) said they feel discomfort due to ultrafine dust.

Ultrafine dust has now become an invisible public enemy.
In order to reduce ultrafine dust, it is necessary for the individual to reduce energy use.
Because of that Seoul Y went out to the streets to announce their needs to the citizens and promise their actions.

For those who have pledged their citizenship to reduce ultrafine dust, Seoul Y gave them tomato sunflowers and basil seeds.

Seoul YWCA would like to actively participate in the movement to protect ourselves from ultrafine dust and to protect the earth.
