We believe that companies and factories are responsible for protecting the environment. They can make a bigger impact to different countries as they are very widespread. They have a lot of money to organise campaigns and spread awareness to others. Companies who are more well known have more influence on others and can convince more to make a change.

We are of the opinion that its  individuals' responsibility to protect the environment. Though corporations have monetary support and funds, however individuals are still the majority. If every individual were to play their part and try to incorporate environmentally friendly habits into their lifestyle, they can make a big difference for the betterment of the environment. Even if big companies or the government were to enact big plans to help the environment, individuals still have the biggest role to play.

I believe that individuals are responsible to protect the environment. There are many individuals in Singapore and when all of them in Singapore does their part, we can make a difference. For instance, individuals can take more public transport instead of driving or taking private transport. Public Transportation reduces energy consumption and harmful carbon dioxide greenhouse gas emissions that damage the environment. Travelling by public transportation uses less energy and produces less pollution than comparable travel in private vehicles.Recycle materials such as>Hence,we believe that individuals are responsible to protect the environment.

We believe that the government is responsible in protecting the environment, if not partially, as because of the power they hold, they can easily influence the community to take action against climate change and participate in keeping Singapore clean and green. The government has many resources and connections to lead the people to do something against climate change, such as hosting events like litter picking and nature restoration. The government can also participate in these event as well to motivate and empower the people and follow in their foot steps.

I believe that the government is responsible for protecting the environment as they hold the most amount of power among people. Since they hold more power over other people, they can initiate more programs to teach the people in singapore to errr conserver no conserve lah to protect the enviroment to throw the rubbish in the dustbin. They can pass certain laws to enforce the envorimental cleaniness to people. Example "Green Plant 2030"

We believe that the government is responsible for protecting the environment because the government holds the highest power in a country. This results in the people of the country looking up to the government as role models. The government has many assets and funds to encourage participation and active movements within our community.

the government is responsible for basically the whole country's waste and pollution, as they have the control over companies and factories. the government has the right to control the activities of companies, factories and schools, etc and should be putting in more effort to influence society as a whole.
FOR INSTANCE THE GOVERNMENT CAN TELL COMPANIES AND FACTORIES TO USE GREENER ALTERNATIVES TO PLASTIC AND OTHER DISPOSABLE ITEMS including packaging. they also can go educate the little children starting from preschool and bring them to excursions and go pick up litter and be raised with public mindedness from young...

I believe it is the companies as they are one of the main reasons why there is pollution because of them using a lot of resources and dumping their waste in places such as the lake in Argentina. Hence, we think that the main culprits should be responsible in protecting the enviroment. In addition, companies can also obtain the neccessary funds to build renewable energy sources such as solar and wind farms.

We believe that individual from all walks of life, are responsible to protect the environment as it is a collaborative effort. Every individual should play their part as a responsible citizen by inculcating good habits like picking up litter on the floor or the 3Rs, reduce reuse and recycle. We should try our best to do our part before it escalates into something much more dangerous for the livelihood  of our planet. For instance, opting to take public transport would be a good option in helping the environment. When one takes the public transport, it reduces the carbon emission compared to when one takes their own private transport. Hence, we believe that protecting the environment is a collaborative effort and that everyone has a role to play in it.

I believe that individuals are responsible for the environment because our city is our responsibility and if no one takes the initiative, we wont be able to progress towards a greener city. Even with the government's GREEN PLAN, if individuals do not contribute, the governments plan would not be effective. For instance, the government sets up recycling bins but it would take the individuals' effort to ensure that the government's plan works,
other ways individuals can contribute is to go for cleanups around Singapore. Therefore we believe that its the individuals' responsibility to protect the environment.

we take the stance that individuals should be in part responsible for protecting the environment in which they live in.
Individuals are a major contributor to environmental pollution, but can also play a big part in saving the environment. They are responsible for a large portion of environmental pollution, such as air conditioning, vehicle emissions. An individual's desire for meaningless plastic goods has increased the demand for wasteful plastic products which pollute the environment. Individuals can directly impact companies choices through their own choices. by taking the small step to turn down a plastic bag, collectively, it will result in the company cutting down on production of plastic bags. Therefore, as individuals contribute to environmental pollution directly and indirectly, and they should do their part to offset that damage through protecting the environment and preventing further environmental pollution.

We believe that everyone has a responsibility to keep the environment clean because it is not just a specific group of people who are responsible as the environment is everyone's home, we should all take initiative to keep our own environment clean , even little actions will be drastic when everyone decides to help clean the environment . We should not wait for the Government to remind us to take action to save OUR environment(communism) we should take our own initiative (sigma male grind-set rule#24).
For example, some actions us individuals can take is that we can walk rather than taking a bus if the destination not far, not only we reduce the carbon footprint, we also get to exercise and become stronk(#sigma male #sukcess). Or if the destination is far, instead of taking a car or taxi, we can take public transport, every small action we do can make a big impact. We can see from the first video that when each individual contributes by taking small steps or volunteering, the impact was huge, from a polluted and dirty Singapore to a clean and green one. That is why i think individuals are responsible (no cap)

I believe that the government would hold the most responsibility to maintain the environment's state. This is because they would be the ones who withhold the most authority to make changes in society and the ones who would understand best of the environment's circumstances. In order to ensure that the country would prosper, they have to uphold maintaining the environment or else in the long run it would harm the citizens' well-fare. For example, they also have the ability to start inculcate good values and attitudes towards the environment in children at an early age to start these good practices early by conducting more lessons on environment in class.

I strongly believe that the responsibility to protect the environment lies in the hands of individuals. Despite numerous climate policies rolled out by governments around the world, for example, the requirement to pay for and obtain a Certificate of Entitlement (COE) in order to have the right to register, own and use a vehicle in Singapore, a large number of Singaporeans own carbon-emitting vehicles. Although there are many companies, restaurants and climate advocates calling for people to stop using plastic bags and plastic straws, I see only barely a handful of people bringing reusable bags when they buy groceries. It is not that companies and governments and not implementing enough policies or taking enough action to protect the environment, but it is the individuals that have not been doing enough. It is not impossible for each and every individual to have awareness on current environmental issues and to take action to stop those issues from deteriorating. One can do a lot to reduce negative impact on our environment, small steps like bringing a reusable bag when buying groceries or taking public transportation when traveling to a certain location. When a government takes action or encourages people to protect the environment, it is almost instantly seen as a political gesture, many people, especially those who are supporters or affiliated with opposition parties may criticise or go against the words of the government. However, when it is an individual effort, there is no political association or any politicisation. When a company raises awareness on climate issues, many people will immediately lash out at them for being self-contradictory, for example, when Saudi oil giant Aramco, released a statement encouraging people to shift to electric cars, they immediately faced backlash due to the environment-damaging oil refineries they owned around the Middle East. Hence, I feel that when individuals play their part in protecting the environment, their efforts accumulate and also encourage more individuals to join in.

We believe that the government is responsible to protect the environment. We believe that the government has the highest authority in the country and so most people will look up to the government for their actions and look to them as role models. The government has a lot of resources and connections to encourage the citizens to promote eco-friendliness, such as hosting events or advertising campaigns. They can also work with companies in order to reduce carbon emissions and help the environment.

AHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHA

(P) It is our opinion that the government should be responsible for protecting the environment. This is because the government has the highest authority and the most influence over the country.

(E) Plans can be implemented to combat climate change. The government can also educate the public and students by reducing, reusing and recycling.

(E) For example, Ministry of National Development (MND) would be rewarding $12 million in Research and Development (R&D) grants for projects. Some R&D project proposals will look at new underground construction methods, while others will explore improving building materials, such as heat and glare reducing “smart” windows and “cool” paint to reduce the temperatures in the houses and decrease the usage of air conditioners

(L) Therefore, we think that the government should be accountable in protecting the environment.

I believe that companies should be responsible for protecting the environment because they can make a greater impact on the general public. They can raise awareness easily on saving the environment by coming up with products or ads that makes people realise the importance of protecting the environment. Companies that are more well-known can influence the public more easily as they are more trusted and popular with the general public. An example is, the lego company organised a fun event that helped to raise awareness on their planet saving project. It appealed to people of younger age groups to start taking actions to save the planet. Therefore I think that companies should be responsible for protecting the environment as they have a great influence on the public.

I believe that companies are responsible as companies are one of the highest contributors of greenhouse gases, while larger corporations can be spread all over the world, making a larger impact than a single government as a whole. For instance, when the Lego factories used 10% less power to manufacture the bricks, it became equivalent to taking off 2000 cars off the road annually. Additionally, they managed to use their money from merchandise to produce 110 turbines, producing energy for many homes in Europe. All those are very hard to accomplish for a typical government or even a group of dedicated individuals, while they do it incredibly easily and efficiently. Therefore, companies are mostly responsible for climate change.
