Singapore, U.S. focus on heat resilience in new pact

The parties will also strengthen cooperation in areas like coastal science.

Singapore and the United States have inked a pact to collaborate on environmental management and climate protection.

Under the memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed by the Singapore Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment (MSE) and the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), both parties will strengthen cooperation areas like climate monitoring and prediction and coastal science.

The parties will also collaborate on modelling to support coastal protection and flood resilience efforts, earth observations for environmental monitoring, and heat resilience.

“MSE, including its statutory boards, National Environment Agency and national water agency PUB, and NOAA will also conduct technical exchanges, information sharing and joint publications and projects under this MOU,” the parties announced.

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.
