SG Climate Rally

SGCR's mission is to bring about a bold, just and necessary transition to net zero emissions in Singapore by 2050 by mobilising broad support from the public, policymakers and businesses.

This transition must be premised on equity, collaboration and care, and will require the transformation of our economic and socio-political systems, as well as our current relationship with the natural world.

SG Climate Rally's story

SG Climate Rally was born from the understanding that we face a climate emergency, and that individual action alone is insufficient to tackle it. They stand for climate justice and push for a just transition; seeking to uplift communities and work with those in power to achieve fair, ambitious climate policy to safeguard our future.

Their Calls to Action to reflect the intersectional nature of climate change and make clear that the green recovery we need must be fair, just and equitable; leaving no one behind. They call on the Government, corporations and communities to:    
  1. Bring Power to the People
  2. Launch a Green Recovery
  3. Redefine Pragmatism and Growth

Singapore's first Climate Rally 2019

In 2019, SGCR organised Singapore’s first climate rally with three Calls to Action: for the government to face the truth about the climate emergency, combat the crisis with a national climate mitigation plan, and engage the people on the climate crisis. Over 2,000 people turned up at the rally, demonstrating the people's support for the government to pursue ambitious climate policy (Read More).

Singapore Climate Rally 2023: Sea's are rising, so are we!

SGCR organised another community mobilisation protest to bring together climate-concerned, everyday Singaporeans who want to stand for a greener and fairer Singapore for everyone. Their "Calls to Action" provide recommendations for a just and inclusive roadmap to net-zero emissions, which was built of previous statements and policy papers (Read More).
