Green Plans in Action: Singapore
Since the turn of this century, Singapore has experienced phenomenal economic growth. In 1992, Singapore established its first Green Plan (SGP). It was a master strategy for environmental improvement with a vision to transform Singapore into a model green, healthy city by the year 2000. Government and non-government agencies monitored activities and there was opportunity for public feedback. The 2002 Singapore Green Plan 2012 (SGP2012) was drawn up as a 10-year national blueprint to build a sustainable environment for generations to come with an update every three years.
