South Koreas New Climate Ministry Pushes Green Goals Amidst LNG Trade Deals South Koreas new Ministry of Climate, Energy, and Environment aims to retire most coal-fired power plants by 2040 and cut carbon emissions in half by 2035. However, this plan clashes with their intention to boost imports of U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) as part of trade deals with the Trump administration. While South Korea wants to speed up its shift to renewables, experts and activists warn that ramping up U.S. LNG buys could lock the country into fossil fuels, delaying a true green transition. The push for green goals comes under liberal President Lee Jae Myung, who sees LNG as a bridge fuel for renewable gaps. However, companies ignoring emissions cuts could lose global competitiveness. South Korea joined the Powering Past Coal Alliance last month, signaling intent to phase out forty of its sixty-one coal sites. The real test will be balancing trade pressures with these ambitious green goals. Checkout Solipillow.com
