GREEN NEW DEAL
全民受益，全球受益
A good deal for Southeast Asia, a good deal for the planet
A JUST TRANSITION
The aims of the Green New Deal is to remedy challenges faced by everyday Singaporeans such as rising costs of living, declining quality of life and job competition, and match the scale and speed of the economic transformation called for by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in their 2018 Special Report, “Global Warming of 1.5°C”.
The policy measures are founded on the principles and goals of putting a meaningful cost on carbon emissions to drive entrepreneurial innovation towards green solutions; creating a fair deal for the working class; ensuring a just transition for workers in sunset industries; co-creating as a form of participation in policy formation to utilize the creativity of citizens inside and outside of Singapore; and strengthening relationships for regional ASEAN cooperation.
