Clean & Green Singapore
The Clean & Green Singapore (CGS) 2010 Carnival is a 3-day event to be held at HortPark, a 23-hectare gardening hub connecting Telok Blangah Hill Park and Kent Ridge Park. Organised by the National Environment Agency and South West Community Development Council, with support from the National Parks Board and PUB, the national water agency, the CGS 2010 Carnival aims to inspire the public to protect and take greater ownership of our living environment.
It offers fun-filled and educational activities that promote environmentally-friendly practices such as using energy-efficient appliances, taking public transport, recycling and more. By adopting these habits, each of us can play an important part in making our environment a better place to live, work and play.
The highlight of the CGS 2010 Carnival is the exhibition on Singapore's 40-year Clean and Green journey, where the multi-faceted effort in creating a clean and green environment that we enjoy today will be showcased. Through bringing visitors on this journey, it is hoped that every individual will be inspired to play his role in sustaining our quality living environment for future generations.
About Clean & Green Singapore
Clean & Green Singapore aims to inspire Singaporeans to care for and protect our living environment by Adopting an Environmentally-Friendly Lifestyle.
Each of us can make a conscious decision and effort to make green practices and green consumerism an integral part of our daily lives by taking stock of our lifestyle in the areas of:
Clean Environment- living in a clean & pest-free environment, City of Gardens & Water- saving water, planting a garden and conserving our greenery, Energy Efficiency and Resource Conservation-practicing energy efficiency, waste minimization and recycling.
These 3 pillars provide a firm foundation for achieving a sustainable environment for all.
