The Singapore Green Plan 2030 is a nationwide sustainability movement
which aims to rally coordinated efforts to tackle climate change. It is
jointly led by the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of National Development,
the Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment, the Ministry of Trade
and Industry and the Ministry of Transport. There are 5 main pillars under
the Green Plan which outline ambitious and concrete sustainability targets
to be achieved by 2030. The SGA supports the Green Plan by encouraging
participating schools to align their environmental projects with these
pillars. Through this, youths can make positive contributions to the national
agenda on sustainable development.
