Majority of Singaporeans aware of net zero concept, but less clear on national climate targets: study

Research finds that only 15 per cent of respondents know of the city-state’s goal to achieve net zero emissions by 2050. Singaporeans also lack understanding of the types of action – for example, switching to a plant-based diet – that can bring about larger impact on cutting emissions

Carbon removal won't save us. We need to eliminate fossil fuels

To the editor: Your article on new scientific interventions to address global climate issues opens with the questionable claim that direct air capture to sequester atmospheric carbon dioxide represents perhaps one of “the world’s best hopes for combating climate change.”
