Majority of Singaporeans aware of net zero concept, but less clear on national climate targets: study
Research finds that only 15 per cent of respondents know of the city-state's goal to achieve net zero emissions by 2050. Singaporeans also lack understanding of the types of action – for example, switching to a plant-based diet – that can bring about larger impact on cutting emissions.

Why isn’t China’s emissions growth slowing like its GDP?
Despite slowing GDP growth, coal consumption is on the up, largely due to a failure to improve energy efficiency.
Last month, Germany became the first major economy to announce that it intends to introduce a target to reach “net-negative” emissions later this century.
Burning all the oil and gas from new discoveries and newly approved projects since 2021 would emit at least 14.1 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide (GtCO2), according to Carbon Brief analysis of Global Energy Monitor (GEM) data.
