On World Environment Day (June 5), multiple civil groups including the Forest City Association held a press conference in Taipei, calling for the preservation of the 100-hectare forest at the Qiaotou Sugar Refinery in Kaohsiung, opposing the Kaohsiung New Town Phase 3 development plan. The groups argue the forest is part of the "Love Taiwan 12 Major Construction Projects" afforestation initiative, providing carbon storage and cooling benefits, and urge the renewal of Taiwan Sugar Corporation's flatland afforestation contracts without deforestation.
