In autumn, both departmental volunteering activities and family activities take place.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#000;&quot;&gt;The event has been well-received by employees with children and is among the most actively participated volunteering activities organized by the company. The number of participants almost doubled from 47 at last year’s inaugural event.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#000;&quot;&gt;Employees and their families from various affiliates, including OCI, OCI Information &amp;amp; Communication, OCI Power, OCI Dream (a standardized workplace for the disabled), DCRE (an urban development project), and Bukwang Pharmaceutical, participated in the event, strengthening group solidarity. Additionally, to foster a connection with nature, children learned the importance of planting trees.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#000;&quot;&gt;They planted a total of 1,600 seedlings, including 800 bridalwreath and 800 kerria, for their carbon absorption benefits, and installed supports for these plants. Additionally, with the assistance of IEAA specialists, they planted nine tall zelkova trees.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#000;&quot;&gt;OCI Holdings plans to plant over 6,000 trees on a 3,000 m&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; lot by 2025.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#000;&quot;&gt;According to the Korea Forest Service, urban forests are effective at alleviating heat islands and heat waves, absorbing carbon and reducing particulate matter. Generally, they are known to lower the average summer temperature by 3-7℃ and reduce particulate matter by 26-27%.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#000;&quot;&gt;OCI Holdings Chairman Woo Hyun Lee said, “With voluntary employee participation, we will have a total of 6,000 trees growing in the OCI Forest. OCI Holdings will continue its ESG activities for the environment by contributing to the protection of urban ecosystems and reducing carbon emissions, in line with our corporate identity as a global renewable energy company.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#000;&quot;&gt;On October 22, 30 employees will plant 11 ash trees as part of a departmental volunteering activity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
