The World On arirang

These days, the Green Growth Movement has been influencing the fashion industry. The word 'Eco-fashion' has evolved from the term 'Ecology Fashion'. A British fashion designer Anya Hindmarch has made a historical achievement by creating the most eco-friendly cloth bag. On Hindmarch's cloth bag, there is a sentence written that says 'I'm Not a Plastic Bag,' which has changed the trend of world fashion. Due to the enormous amount of clothes waste, the global warming has doubly increased.
When unusable clothes are sent to a landfill and burned, carbon dioxide is produced. To prevent the expansion of global warming, the fashion industry is putting forth much effort to invent the most efficient eco-friendly clothes. Recycling old clothes and using less electronic machinery are examples of ecology fashion.

In order to lead the way in sustainable growth, the government in Korea has laid out its vision to achieve green growth in the Asia Pacific region. The Seoul Initiative has commenced in the city of Muju to discuss the issues of global warming and strategies of the green growth movement. The Korean government is launching cutting-edge environmental technologies in developing countries such as Iraq. By conveying ways to deal with the rubbish in landfills and technologies of agriculture, Korea has become one of the leading green growth movement countries in the world.

Within the 20 national parks in Korea, Byeonsan National Park is the only one located within a peninsula. Because the park is right near the mountains and the sea, there are numerous tourists visiting every weekend. The cleanest natural environment and the well-preserved cultural heritage are the merits of this place. By walking through the forest and visiting the Buddhist temple one can feel how clean and green Korea can truly be.
