Happy Mom!’ programs run by the Ulsan Nam-gu Community Welfare Center. ‘Eco Mom! Happy Mom!’ is a campaign staged by the Ulsan Nam-gu Community Welfare Center for the community environmental leaders to introduce the seriousness of environmental problems to parents and children of the local community and carry out activities to clean up and improve the environment.  Corio and TotalEnergies, which are promoting floating offshore wind projects in Ulsan, supported the campaign last May as part of their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) activities to conserve the environment and pursue co-prosperity with the region. This time, Corio and TotalEnergies employees actively took part in the activity to protect the environment, such as picking up trash along the Yeocheon Stream while communicating with the residents. The program consisted of two sessions: ‘Yeocheon Stream Environment Monitoring’ and ‘Yeocheon Stream Plogging.’ Moon Ho-seong, the head of Ulsan River Restoration Network, had first given a theoretical lecture on the environmental conditions of the stream before all participants checked the water quality of the stream by measuring chemical oxygen demand (COD) and dissolved oxygen (DO). Then, the participants carried out plogging activities for an hour, starting from the area near the Ulsan Library to the downstream. “It was a meaningful time to meet with and conduct volunteer activities with the residents who are striving to preserve the environment in Ulsan based on affection and responsibility,” Corio and TotalEnergies said. “For a sustainable future, we will continue to pay attention and work together with the residents so that eco-friendly activities can become a daily routine in local communities.” “I feel rewarded as I can engage in environmental protection activities on a regular basis as a member of the community that gathered to conserve the environment of the Yeocheon Stream,” said Park Jae-ryeon, an ‘Eco Mom! Happy Mom!’ member. “I am also grateful to the employees of Corio and TotalEnergies for their interest in local activities and working together with us in concert.” Corio and TotalEnergies have been continuously expanding their ESG activities since 2019 in order to raise awareness of the value of environmental conservation for future generations, especially in Ulsan. This year, they sponsored the production of the ChildFund Korea’s environmental education kit 'Bag to the Green' in July, and held a marine environment education campaign ‘Together with Ocean’ at Okseo Elementary School in Ulsan in September, in collaboration with the National Ocean Science Museum (KOSM).  Meanwhile, Corio and TotalEnergies are co-developing more than 2GW of offshore wind projects in Korea under the joint brand name of ‘BadaEnergy’. Recently, SK ecoplant has joined as a new partner. Currently, BadaEnergy is carrying out five offshore wind projects in Korea, including the floating offshore wind projects with a combined capacity of 1.5 GW (project name: Gray Whale I, II, and III) off the coast of Ulsan.  Photo 1) Corio and TotalEnergies participated in an activity to clean up the Yeocheon Stream, one of the ‘Eco Mom!
