Park in Yeouido, Seoul, removing

up the environment around the wetland area.
Saetgang Ecological Park in Yeouido stands
as an eco-friendly biodiversity hub in the heart of Seoul, serving as both an urban
retreat and an ecological tourist attraction for citizens. However, the park
has been facing challenges from the spread of invasive plant species that threaten
the survival of native flora. These invasive plants not only reproduce aggressively,
but their leaves and stems can also be toxic or trigger allergic reactions in
visitors, requiring constant removal efforts.
Mr. Chung said, “This meaningful campaign reflects
our commitment to protecting valuable urban wetlands and forests, ensuring a
healthier ecological environment for future generations. As a responsible
corporate citizen, Siemens Korea will continue to drive sustainability initiatives
aligned with our corporate philosophy to create lasting positive impact for our
society and environment."
In response, about 60 employees from
Siemens Korea, including President and CEO Mr. HaJoong Chung, participated
in volunteer
environmental cleanup activities, removing major invasive plant species along
the ecological waterway and willow forest area stretching from Yeouigyo Bridge
to Seoulgyo Bridge. Target species included common ragweed, giant ragweed,
white snakeroot, bur cucumber, and humulus japonicus.
Meanwhile, Siemens Korea has been
actively engaging in various initiatives as part of its sustainability
management. In 2024, the company conducted the ‘Forest Restoration ESG Campaign’ at the National
Center for Forest Education in Chuncheon. Siemens Korea has also raised funds
for emergency relief efforts, including aid for the Türkiye Earthquake,
the forest fires in Gangwon and Gyeongbuk provinces, and the earthquake in
Nepal. In addition, the company has contributed to local community development
through employee-led volunteer activities such as donations of daily
necessities, environment cleanup efforts, and meal serving programs.
