Description

This book invites nature lovers and environmental enthusiasts to explore 50 essays written by Singaporeans and friends who share their perspectives and expertise—from scientists and lawyers to economists, engineers, bankers, government officers, and civil society leaders—all linked by a love for nature, the environment, and Singapore. The essays focus on protecting Singapore's biodiversity (primate species, colugos, otters, butterflies, dragonflies, stick insects, birds, coral reefs, mangroves, and sea grasses); efforts to safeguard special areas (Lower Peirce Reservoir, Chek Jawa, Sungei Buloh, the Rail Corridor, and the first marine nature reserve); and the contributions of NGOs (Nature Society, Herpetological Society, Waterways Watch Society). They also highlight how scholars, the government, and the private sector work to create a clean and green City in Nature, in the face of limited space and climate change.
