At the current rate of waste disposal, Semakau Landfill is expected to run out of space by 2035. Hence, to lengthen its lifespan, we will aim for a higher recycling rate of 70% (up from 61% in 2017) to divert waste away from the landfill.
By adopting a circular approach, resources can be recovered and reused at the end of a product's life, thus reducing the consumption of resources and generation of waste.
The amount of food waste generated in Singapore has increased by about 40% over the last 10 years. Food waste comprises more than 20% of waste disposed in Singapore. To minimise the incineration of food waste, they will be segregated from other waste and treated separately from 2024. At Our Tampines Hub, food waste is already segregated and converted into non-potable water and compost for use at its rooftop garden!
