Carbon Policy
& Accounting
In this focus area, we assess blue carbon's potentials to enhance Singapore's climate policies and support the country's net-zero ambitions.
Key Objectives
We model how blue carbon could evolve under future scenarios and contribute to Singapore’s climate targets, providing insights for policy integration. This work includes developing Singapore’s first National Blue Carbon Framework, a roadmap for incorporating blue carbon into greenhouse gas reporting, while addressing challenges through stakeholder engagement and analysis.
Methods
Scenario modeling for future carbon emissions, carbon accounting, and social science surveys to understand constraints to full integration of blue carbon.
