“The government’s promotional video says that saving water, picking up trash, and riding a bicycle can prevent the climate crisis, but it’s all a lie. I hope that citizens will be able to stop coal power plants, stop unnecessary civil engineering projects such as new airports, and help the state and businesses spend their budgets correctly. Let’s do it together!” To prevent the extinction of the earth’s people as a’extinction senior’ ‘Kim Gong-ryong’ in’Climate No. 0’in the 4·7 Seoul Mayor’s by-electionWe met at a studio in Gongdeok-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul on the 5th. The reason for his run was simple. “Because there are no candidates to talk about the climate crisis in 0th place.” Kim Gong-ryong is a’best friend’ of young people belonging to the climate movement group’Youth Climate Emergency Action’. There was a desire to raise awareness in Lee Cham, but that wasn’t the only thing. His 12 pledges in the six major categories that he announced on the 1st also drew attention. Let’s put sunlight on naked buildings in the city, change school meals to vegetarian diet (choose meat), eliminate one-quarter of parking spaces in the city, establish a climate crisis response fund, make it mandatory for survival education related to climate crisis. This is a policy proposal that cannot be found among the influential ruling and opposition candidates. It was radical, but it was evaluated as a realistic pledge to meet the climate crisis. Kim Gong-ryong said, “I studied the case of other countries and the arguments of experts.”

In January of last year, Kim Gong-ryong awakened to the climate movement while lying in front of Environment Minister Cho Joong-rae with young people. This is because the minister in charge decided that it was not actively responding to the climate crisis. During the election of the National Assembly in April of last year, he couldn’t stand the resentment and took the position of’Climate No. 0’and wandered around Jongno and Gwanghwamun in Seoul. June of that year To meet Sung Yun-mo, Minister of Trade, Industry and Energy In front of the government’s Sejong government building, he waited tirelessly. On New Year’s Day this year, a memorial service was held around Hongdae to condemn and satirize Samsung C&T for participating in the construction of the Vung Ang coal-fired power plant in Vietnam. “Citizens are experiencing the climate crisis and are interested in it. But he says he’s not sure what to do. We need to tell you how jobs will change in the future due to the climate crisis and what preparations should be made, but the government is letting go of it. This is not only a matter of the Ministry of Environment, but the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Labor should all do it together.” I asked if I was dreaming of’the second Pengsu’. Kim Dinosaur was ashamed. At the same time, he advised Pengsu to “don’t lose your original spirit.” “Because of the climate crisis, penguins in Antarctica are in danger, but I heard that they live in the’Peng Sukso’ that POSCO, the No. 1 greenhouse gas emission company in Korea, built in the lobby of (EBS). Even now, I hope Pengsu finds a beginner and leaves the house.”
