A climate-resilient Singapore for a sustainable future

Singapore is a low-lying, densely-populated tropical island city-state. The country is vulnerable to the effects of climate change and variability. While natural climate variability may have played a part in these recent events, extreme conditions are likely to become more intense and frequent due to climate change. It is therefore important for Singapore to prepare for climate change.

This report details the risks and impacts that Singapore faces as well as the Resilience Framework and specific measures that Singapore has developed to guide its plans for climate change adaptation. The framework helps the city-state identify climate change risks to people and property, and formulate adaptation plans to minimise the adverse effects of climate change on our lives.
