Minister of Environment edit
Han was appointed as a candidate for the Minister of Environment by president Yoon Suk-yeol in April 13, 2022. She assumed office on May 11.[2] Han has indicated that she hopes to focus less on regulation and more on autonomy, social cooperation, and opinion gathering. She has also empahsized the importance of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of things (IoT), and big data.[3]
Han has strengthened Yoon's policies of expanding the role of nuclear power. In a 2022 June 15 press conference, she asserted that "the classification of nuclear power as green energy is an international trend," and "how nuclear power and renewable energy will be mixed in harmony" is what matters.[4]
On May 9, 2023, Han announced in a press conference that she will "actively use the four river's weirs" and "diligently execute the cooperative management" of weirs and dams to prepare for droughts and floods. She also claimed that the Moon administration's decisions to remove the weirs "cannot be seen as a decision based on science".[5]
