Pollinator Garden

On April 24, 2024, in celebration of Earth Day, LG Electronics opened a Pollinator Garden at its business site in Bergen County, New Jersey, USA, and obtained the Certified Wildlife Habitat certification from the National Wildlife Federation (NWF). The garden provides a stable habitat for pollinating insects, such as bees and butterflies, whose populations have declined due to climate change. This contributes to the preservation of biodiversity and the establishment of a sustainable ecosystem.

LG Electronics Global Volunteer Day

Since 2010, LG Electronics has designated June 5th as 'LG Electronics Volunteer Day' annually to carry out environmental protection activities. We operate waste home appliance collection and recycling programs in 89 regions across 54 countries. We are striving to establish a circular economy with a goal to collect 8 million tons of waste appliances and use 600,000 tons of recycled plastic by 2030.

Smart Green Movement

LG Electronics’ Spanish subsidiary is actively promoting the “Smart Green Movement” in collaboration with various partners to help address local environmental issues and create a sustainable future. This initiative focuses on three core areas to restore healthy ecosystems and preserve biodiversity within local communities: restoration of terrestrial ecosystems (Trees), promotion of biodiversity (Bees), and protection of marine ecosystems (Seas).

Smart Green Trees (Forest Restoration)

Since 2017, LG Electronics has carried out forest restoration activities in various regions across Spain and Portugal, including Guadalajara, Madrid, Barcelona, Malaga, and Maia, Portugal. To restore terrestrial ecosystems in response to deforestation and desertification issues in Spain, the initiative sets a long-term goal of planting 47 million trees annually, equivalent to the population of Spain (about 47 million people). To achieve this goal, LG Electronics implements forest restoration campaigns through direct tree planting and the “seed bomb” method, which involves sowing balls made of soil, compost, and seeds.

Smart Green Bees (Restoring Bee Population)

To enhance biodiversity, LG Electronics has been promoting a project since 2023 aimed at increasing the population of bees, essential for plant pollination, with a particular focus on the “Iberian honeybee,” a native species of Spain. The long-term goal is to increase the bee population by approximately 47 million. Within just one year of launching the initiative, the project achieved an increase of about 3.5 million bees.

Smart Green Seas (Marine Ecosystem Restoration)

In addition to addressing land-based issues, LG Electronics is actively responding to marine environmental challenges by promoting a project aimed at restoring marine ecosystems and protecting the habitats of marine flora and fauna. As part of this initiative, the company is working on the restoration of Posidonia oceanica1), a type of marine vegetation known for its effective carbon dioxide absorption.

1) The “Posidonia oceanica” meadows found in Spain’s Balearic Islands are considered one of the most powerful natural carbon sinks. Originating from ancient times, this marine plant has a carbon absorption capacity 15 times greater than that of the Amazon rainforest per unit area.

Executive social contribution funding activities

Over 87% of LG Electronics executives are leading social contribution efforts by donating 0.5% of their monthly salaries. This voluntary fund, which began in 2004, has expanded to include overseas executives since 2019, spreading greater value in giving.
