Singapore’s location within Southeast Asia, where there is a lack of observational climate data, is also a challenge to local climate modelling work in projecting climate change impacts. These characteristics make adaptation planning in Singapore both complex and challenging. 2) Singapore’s Longstanding and Future Actions to Increase Resilience. Recognising that adaptation solutions cannot be implemented overnight, Singapore started early to integrate long-term adaptation planning into national policies. Listed below are some key adaptation measures Singapore is undertaking:a.
Embedding NbS into adaptation planning and policy Preparing for a changing climate by planning for floods and droughts Undertaking inclusive and climate-informed planning for new and existing infrastructure
