What is Sustainable Development?
Sustainable development for Singapore means growing our city state in a way that:
- Is efficient: we develop with less resources and waste
- Is clean: we develop without polluting our environment
- Is green: we develop while preserving greenery, waterways and our natural heritage
This way, we ensure that Singapore can enjoy both economic growth and a good living environment for ourselves, and for future generations.
