I learnt that  Centre for Climate Research Singapore will launch a S$10 million National Sea Level Research Programme over the next five years to develop more robust projections of sea level rise. A new Climate Science Research Programme Office will also be set up to formulate, lead and drive efforts to build up climate science capabilities in Singapore.

I learnt that Singapore is defined by our coasts. To protect these areas, we have strengthened our defences against coastal erosion and flooding. Today, over 70% of Singapore’s coastline is protected with hard structures such as seawalls and rock slopes.Furthermore, I learn that Singapore expects to invest S$100 billion, or even more, in coastal defences such as sea walls, pumping stations and land reclamation.

SG is also making plans for coastal defences to better protect our coastal areas.

One thing that i learnt about adaptation was the rate  of rainfall is starting to increase due to the cause by a higher rate of evaporation and human activities. Therefor, Singapore has to build elevated entrances or installed flood barriers in the  entrances in MRT stations.

Other than all of this , Singapore will be expecting a rise in sea level . We should be prepared for this.

To add on, the mosquito’s reproduce rate will be higher  as the there is more rainfall causing more stagnant water. If we don’t get serious about this matter, the dengue cases will rise again, and our efforts will go to waste.

Ye,the dengue cases are already rising,if we still don’t get serious about this matter,the dengue will soon become something big...

Since 2011, Singapore has spent $1.8 billion on drainage improvement works to boost our flood resilience. This includes the Stamford Diversion Canal and Stamford Detention Tank completed last year, which significantly enhance the flood protection of the Orchard Road areas. In the next two years, another $400 million will go towards upgrading and maintaining our drains.

I also learnt that protected from the effects of climate change. Analyses so far have indicated that the structural integrity of buildings in Singapore will not be affected by the projected changes in temperature, rainfall, and wind speeds as long as the buildings adhere to building codes and are properly maintained. protected from the effects of climate change. Climate change also poses threats to our health. For example, changes in the weather pattern, such as temperature increase, could create prime conditions for mosquitoes to breed and viruses to replicate faster, leading to an increase in the infective vector population and transmission of dengue.

I learnt that Singapore is investing at least 100 billion dollars in building coastal defences and planning to grow thirty percent of our nutrition needs. For the Mass rapid transport, we are building elevated entrance a d installed flood barrier.

I have learnt about Singapore has been improving our flood reslience over the years and it enhance the flood protection of the Orchard Road areas.The National Parks board would inspect the trees along major roads and areas with high human activity every once a year.

I learnt that Singapore has strengthened the defences against coastal erosion and flooding, 70% of Singapore’s coastal line is protected with hard structures such as sea walls and rock slopes. I also Singapore has also raised the minimum platform  levels for new developments.

I’ve learnt that global warming is introducing floods and Singapore is trying to defense itself.Singapore is also going to invest S$100 billion, or even more, in coastal defences such as sea walls, pumping stations and land reclamation.Singapore is doing so much as 70% of Singapore’s coastal line is protected with hard structures such as sea walls and rock slopes.

I have learnt that to protect these areas, we have strengthened our defences against coastal erosion and flooding.Climate change could also affect our underground MRT stations as they will be susceptible to flooding during intense rainfalls. To protect our commuters and rail infrastructure, we have built MRT stations with elevated entrances or installed flood barriers.Singapore has spent $1.8 billion on drainage improvement works to boost our flood resilience. In the next two years, another $400 million will go towards upgrading and maintaining our drains. Another that i learnt is about
Strengthening food security

Singapore imports more than 90% of our food today. This makes us vulnerable to external factors, such as volatilities of the global food market, impacts of climate change, and disease outbreak.

To make our food supply more resilient, we are pursuing three strategies, also known as our three “food baskets”:

1. Diversify import sources;

2. Grow local; and

3. Grow overseas.

To effectively buffer against supply disruptions, we aim to produce 30% of our nutritional needs by 2030.

I learnt that Singapore was among  the first 55 countries to ratify in the Paris Climate Change Agreement,
Singapore also has a good defence against the flood from heavy rains. Some MRT stations have elevated entrances and has installed flood barriers.
PUB has planned to build a second pump house on the opposite end of the Marina Barrage to pump water out of Marina Reservoir into the sea. When rain falls in the city area, the water can then drain into Marina Reservoir.

They have also raised the minimum platform levels for new developments and are building critical future developments such as the Changi Airport Terminal 5 and Tuas Terminal mega port at higher platform levels – at least five metres above mean sea level.

They have invested in research and development, water infrastructures, and diversified Singapore’s water supply to include weather-resilient sources such as NEWater and desalinated water.

We expect to invest S$100 billion, or even more, in coastal defences such as sea walls, pumping stations and land reclamation.

We are also making plans for coastal defences to better protect our coastal areas, starting with the more critical segments, in particular, City-East Coast and Jurong Island.

Since 2011, they have raised minimum reclamation levels for newly reclaimed lands to at least 4 metres above the MEAN sea level.

I have learnt that in order to protect certain areas from flood, we have to strengthen our defences against coastal erosion and flooding. The invest and plans for coastal defenses are to protect it better. For example the sea walls, pumping stations and land reclamation. Flooding has already caused over 70% of Singapore’s coastline to be protected with hard structures such as seawalls and rock slopes. The rising of the average temperature of Earth's climate system is also called climate change that affects many living things with negative impacts such as drought.

Heavy rain can cause flooding on the shore of singapore,therefore , 70% of Singapore’s coastline is protected with hard structures such as seawalls and rock slopes.Also ,Climate change could also affect singapore's  underground MRT stations as they will be susceptible to flooding during intense rainfalls. To protect our commuters and rail infrastructure, singapore have built MRT stations with elevated entrances or installed flood barriers. To prevent some of this to happen ,For the eastern coastline, some of the options  singapore are considering include the Building of poders or reclaiming a series of islands offshore, from Marina East all the way to Changi.
