Nature-based solutions for climate adaptation
Singapore will continue naturalising waterways and waterbodies in Singapore’s gardens and parks, and incorporate the same designs (e.g. floodplains) in our coastal and riverine parks to mitigate the impact of sea level rise. We will also conserve and restore our mangrove forests, as they help to dissipate waves and trap sediment, potentially serving as a flexible form of coastal defence while preventing erosion. These measures are part of our transformation of Singapore into a City in Nature, which we are accelerating, so Singaporeans can enjoy through greater access to nature and its therapeutic benefits in the “new normal”.
