How SMEs can do their bit for Singapore's environment

A RECENT survey by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) revealed that on average, Singaporeans could be ingesting 5 grams of plastic every week - equivalent to a credit card's plastic content - in the air they breathe, the food they eat and, especially, the water they drink.

This fact, while shocking, calls timely attention to the mounting environmental issues that as a society, we must acknowledge and address.

With this in mind, Singaporean organisations must firstly accept the role they have played in contributing to these issues - and more importantly, take proactive measures to alleviate these problems before it is too late.
