  Hi, im currently doing a a geography project and have no idea on a environmental problem to solve in Singapore.

   

  - Air pollution ( Solutions are limited )

  - Waste Management ( "    " )

  - Green Spaces ( Government providing solutions already )

  Okay I help you generate some topics.

  1) Singapore beaches are dirty, people are litering on beaches.

  2) Lack of recycling programs in Singapore. This made us generate more waste which is not good in the long run. Imagine if you could recycle cans, papers and glass, it would make our society a cleaner and greener place to live in.

  3) Beach errosion. It's a problem Singapore face and trying desperately to solve the problem. If you read the news a few days ago, the government actually planning to build breakwater stones.

  4) Another one is very popular, the flooding problem in Singapore.

   

  Come back to us when you think of a good topic.  I once taken an environmental project when I was in my poly days, so I can give you some valuable advice~
