SEOUL, Nov. 22 (Yonhap) -- A video that encourages reducing leftovers centered around must-eat Kimchi was released on Tuesday.
The 4-minute video titled "Bon appetite for carbon neutrality" was produced by entertainer Park Na-rae and Professor Suh Gyeong-duk to celebrate "Kimchi Day."
There is also a video with English subtitles (www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwO2OVgaOzU). These videos were made with KB Financial Group.
The video emphasizes how serious problems caused by food wastes are and explains that eating well is the easiest way to practice carbon neutrality in life.
Moreover, it induces people to actively participate by informing various efforts to reduce the leftovers from side dishes, including kimchi, which is difficult to recycle, and teaching ways to approach good ingredients more environmentally friendly.
Professor Seo, who planned the video, said, "We are currently spreading it through not just YouTube, but social media such as Facebook and Instagram," adding,"We are also sharing it to overseas Korean as well as Korean student community."
Park Na-rae who participated in the video narration said, "I was happy to be able to convey the importance of the global environment through reducing leftovers with my voice," adding, "I hope many watch the video."
