S'pore's environmental issues in 2013 by Kai Yi

Summary: This article mainly talks about Singapore’s environmental issues for example, preparing for climate change, littering, preparing for Singapore to get “water independent”, etc. and measures that they will take to overcome these problems.

Opinion: One of the problems that Singapore faces as mentioned in the article is about littering. I think that in order for Singapore to maintain its reputation for being a garden city, the ministry should cultivate Singaporeans to have a strong sense of belonging to their home country, this will in turn motivate them in having a sense of responsibility in preserving a clean and safe environment for Singapore. In my opinion, I feel that getting people to do what they want to do for their country is much better than getting people to do what they have to do in the fear of getting punishments from the law.
