@HurricaneBacklashАй бұрын
@@Kafir667 there are multiple reasons for that. 1. Lack of awareness among the general public. 2. A significant number of Singaporeans are not literate in English (all the blue bins are English-text only, even the website that details what can be recycled is also English-only) 3. As a consequence of points 1 and 2, some use the blue bin as a trash bin, throwing in contaminated recyclables and ruining the rest of the contents in the affected bins 4. Possibly too many life stressors that recycling takes a back seat to more pressing needs. 5. There were a few controversies such as the SportsSG shoe recycle campaign where a rogue contractor exported donated shoes to be sold in neighbouring countries. Those who learned of this might have lost faith and stopped recycling. 6. And to top it all off, the success of recycling efforts also depend on whether there is demand for recycled materials. Otherwise, it is not worth for companies to recycle as they will be unable to sell their recycled material and/or products.

If you’ve ever been to Singapore you’ll know that when it rains it pours! I genuinely believe if Singapore instituted a national water reclamation scheme it would help to reduce consumption, and energy, to an extent. Pipes that also funnel water could also have water driven generators to help produce electricity akin to mini hydro-dams, thereby utilising the precious space that Singapore lacks. Vertical farming could literally also assist in generating a home grown industry, helping to produce food locally thereby helping to reduce fresh produce that is imported.

It takes 3 units of energy to create 1 unit of energy storing hydrogen. In other words, 2 units of energy are wasted for each unit stored. Then hydrogen is difficult to store & transport since it leaks through almost everything. You want to install some tidal stream turbines in that Strait between Singapore & Malacca. Since Singapore is located at the interface between the South China Sea and the Indian Ocean, you should be able to generate enough to keep you going.
@ironboy3245Ай бұрын
The issue with that is international waters and shipping. Sufficiently large anchors would break the power cables, since burying them in the strait is hard due to depth Also hydrogen transportation will most likely be done through ammonia, larger and will be liquid without being cryogenically cooled, all you need is pressure

Singapore is an experiment and as a Singaporean I can share that we've started to witness multiple existential crises in the past decade. Housing market, population, climate, scarcity of land - Everything starting to take it's toll on the system for the first time. Remember, Singapore has not even lived out 1 whole generation yet - It is a brand new city.

Electricity imports has its downsides, Singapore should ensure that it can meet its power needs in the event if electricity imports were to be disrupted as the country has no control over the situation where the source comes from. Say for instance, disruptions, natural disasters, reliability and quality issues when importing power from overseas. Worst off is when politics and economics/money is made an issue. Singapore has nearly 60 years of experience dealing with its immediate neighbour on the water agreement. Often it is being used as a political tool for gains/leverage. Then there's the issue of costs/pricing. A contract that was agreed and signed but yet apparently the country's neighbour for some reason choose to make an issue of the contract. This can happen too for electricity imports should a country decide to act in its own interest, which is within their own right of course. Better to have lesser headaches and go for self reliance
