It is not likely for Singapore to enter an economy downturn

Climate change is no longer a distant threat, it’s unfolding in real time. Sea levels are creeping higher, heatwaves are becoming more intense and frequent, and global supply chains are increasingly strained by extreme weather.

At the same time, the world’s attention is pulled in other directions, from geopolitical tensions to ongoing energy crises.

So where does that leave Singapore, a low-lying island nation already grappling with rising temperatures and long-term sea level risks? 

And how will Singapore plan decades ahead when international cooperation is fragmenting, funding is uncertain, and the impacts of climate change are becoming more unpredictable by the year?

On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks with international freelance climate editor Rachel Kelly, to find out more.

So are markets brushing off the risks, or are investors simply focusing on the bigger economic picture?
