The public can express their views on the proposal on the REACH website.

Singapore is eyeing to raise its climate ambition to achieve net zero by 2050 and is seeking public opinion on the matter.

The National Climate Change Secretariat in the Strategy Group and the Prime Minister’s Office said the public can express their views on how Singapore can work towards becoming a low-carbon country.

In a bid to achieve its net-zero target by 2050,  Singapore said it is also mulling raising its 2030 Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC). Interested parties can likewise comment on this proposal through public consultation.

“Feedback received will be taken into consideration when Singapore makes a formal revision to our Long-Term Low Emissions Development Strategy (LEDS) and 2030 NDC before the end of 2022,” the National Climate Change Secretariat said.

The consultation period began on 5 September and will close on 26 September. Individuals who would like to leave feedback may do so via go.gov.sg/reach-pc-climate-2022.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
