Much progress has been made at working out how much climate change will cost humanity. Less is known of the value of biodiversity. This is essential to safeguarding the environment and mankind, argues the head of WWF.

The emergence of COVID-19 has cast a spotlight on the interdependency between humans and nature. This World Environment Day, it’s “Time for Nature”! The United Nations (UN) has chosen biodiversity – a concern that is both urgent and existential – as the theme for 2020. What are some simple lifestyle changes that you can make to positively impact biodiversity and the environment?

Leading a waste-free lifestyle starts at home. These five tips show how greening your house and life is easier and cheaper than you think.

Singapore is heavily reliant on the world for its food needs, with more than 90 percent of food currently imported. How can technological innovations be harnessed to ‘grow more with less’ locally and produce affordable food sustainably?

The environmental impact of our food is affected by where our food comes from, and consumption trends locally. This study uses a life-cycle approach to quantify the global environmental impact of 13 key food items in Singapore. The report also offers pathways which could meaningfully reduce the environmental impact of our food.

There are many pathways to a low-carbon future. While there are challenges in comparing carbon emissions across countries, the evidence presented in this paper suggests that increasing economic prosperity need not necessarily be at the expense of increasing emissions.

Can we maintain our quality of life and feed humanity without costing the earth? Innovators shared how they are transforming current modes of production and consumption at Ecosperity Week in Singapore.
