Singapore Green Plan

The plan is supported by the Ministries of Education, National Development, Sustainability and the Environment, Trade and Industry, and Transport. The Green Plan seeks to achieve concrete key targets over the next 10 years, strengthening Singapore’s commitments to achieve long-term net-zero emissions as soon as viable. Singapore strives to be a model for the Southeast Asian region and has ranked ahead regionally in the Energy Transition Index 2021 by the World Economic Forum.

2. Sustainable Living: to make reducing carbon emissions, keeping the environment clean and saving resources and energy a way of life in Singapore.
3. Energy Reset: to use cleaner energy and increase energy efficiency to lower Singapore’s carbon footprint.
4. Green Economy: to seek green growth opportunities to create new jobs, transform Singapore’s industries and harness sustainability as a competitive advantage.
