Singapore Waste Management DESCRIPTION:\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0py790jcd4 ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0py790jcd4 )\n\nJialu Li1\nYitong Huang1\nFaculty Mentor: Kimberly Nehls, Ph.D.2\n1Lee Business School, Department of Accounting\n2Lee Business School, Department of Marketing and International Business\nABSTRACT\nWith the constant population growth in such a limited land, Singapore is faced with multiple challenges in waste management. Over the last decades, Singapore aimed to strive for a zero-waste environment for its nation by reducing the significant amount of waste disposed of through recycling and maximizing landfills. The scope of this poster is to present whether Singapore has had an efficient control over its waste management in the last two decades. The poster took approaches to analyze statistics that concludes the recycle rates categorized into different classifications of waste disposals from 2003 to 2020 and average of total saved energy through the process of recycling. Overall, the findings suggest Singapore had an efficient waste management at the beginning with constant growth of recycle rate, but discrepancies are found starting from 2018 since the rate declined rapidly in three years. So coming to the conclusion that Singapore’s efficiency on waste management control still has the potential to develop sustainable improvement. Visualizing these data can help Singapore’s government to implement recycling policies that motivate people to improve their living environment.\n URL:https://oursymposium.sites.unlv.edu/program/singapore-waste-management/ ORGANIZER;CN=The Office of Undergraduate Research:MAILTO:our@unlv.edu END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
