 |
Implement the 10-year Sustainable Consumption and Production Framework
Implement the 10-Year Framework of Programmes on Sustainable Consumption and Production Patterns, all countries taking action, with developed countries taking the lead, taking into account the development and capabilities of developing countries.
|
Indicator 12.1.1 | Number of countries developing, adopting or implementing policy instruments aimed at supporting the shift to sustainable consumption and production
|
In 2019, Singapore launched the Zero Waste Masterplan, which outlines our circular economy approach to encourage sustainable consumption and production. Singapore also introduced the Resource Sustainability Act that will put in place a systems-level approach that mandates key responsibilities to enable re-use and recycling nation-wide. Sustainable development has been the cornerstone of Singapore’s continued progress since our independence and will continue to be an ongoing journey.

Halve Global Per Capita Food Waste
By 2030, halve per capita global food waste at the retail and consumer levels and reduce food losses along production and supply chains, including post-harvest losses.
|
Indicator 12.3.1 | (a) Food loss index and (b) food waste index
|
(b)
Food waste generated includes food waste disposed of and food waste recycled.
|
|
 |
Responsible Management of Chemicals and Waste
By 2020, achieve the environmentally sound management of chemicals and all wastes throughout their life cycle, in accordance with agreed international frameworks, and significantly reduce their release to air, water and soil in order to minimize their adverse impacts on human health and the environment.

As a party to several Multilateral Environmental Agreements (MEAs) on hazardous chemicals and waste, Singapore has put in place measures to meet its obligations.
|
|
Indicator 12.4.2 | (a) Hazardous waste generated per capita; and (b) Proportion of hazardous waste treated, by type of treatment
|
(a)
Data are based on records of hazardous waste being collected and treated.
(b) Since data are based on records of hazardous waste being collected and treated, the total proportion of generated hazardous wastes that are treated in Singapore is 100%.
