Sentosa Golf Club is widely regarded as the world’s most sustainable golf club. The Club launched its first sustainability campaign, #KeepitGreen, back at the 2018 SMBC Singapore Open, which was designed to raise awareness for participation within golf in Singapore and also sustainable practices within the sport.
A number of environmental initiatives have since been pioneered by the Club, via the #KeepitGreen umbrella (which has since become a way of life and mantra at the Club), all geared towards helping the Club become more sustainable and reduce its carbon footprint.
1. Banning all single-use plastics from the course saving over 150,000 plastic bottles a year
2. Creating six bee colonies to help increase worldwide population
3. Moving to single head control irrigation system has reduced the Club’s water resources by up to 40%
4. Purchasing GPS spraying equipment to increase efficiency and reduce product application use by 30%
5. Installing food and horticultural waste digesters – helping to save an estimate 30% on monthly waste disposal over a one-year period
6. Activating five Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Stations through a partnership with Porsche Destination Charging
The Club continued to build on its goals and ambitions set out with #KeepitGreen, launching a second sustainability campaign, called GAME ON, in 2020. The campaign has since urged the golf industry to respond to climate change by implement new modern processes for the betterment of the environment. In 2020, Sentosa became the first golf club in the world to join the United Nations Sports for Climate Action Initiative. The following year, at the HSBC Women’s World Championship, the Club also committed to becoming the world’s first carbon neutral golf club.

Little steps, lots of drops
Walking on less water, changing the tanning game
You’ve probably never thought about how much water it takes to produce one full piece of uncut leather. We have. That’s why ECCO developed DriTan™. The first step towards water-efficient leather manufacturing and a game-changing innovation for the leather industry.
The craft of leather-tanning has been around for thousands of years. And it was always thought to be impossible without using large amounts of water – a resource more precious now than ever.
At ECCO, we were determined to find a different way. A better way. So after five years of research and testing, the ECCO Leather Applied Research team in the Netherlands did exactly that.
They developed a unique process that doesn’t need any additional water to make one full piece of ECCO DriTan™ leather. Saving 20 litres of water – around 400,000 drops – along the way.
On top of that, DriTan™ lowers our wastewater volumes and reduces the volume of chemicals used – in 2021 we saved 260 tonnes. In all our tanneries, we have always treated our own wastewater onsite. Our goal? Net zero water discharge by 2030.
We’re proud of the quality, durability, versatility and natural texture of ECCO DriTan™ leather. And because of the potential water-saving impact, ECCO has made DriTan™ technology open to share with other leather tanneries. A positive impact on the whole leather industry, not just at ECCO.
A small but mighty step to preserving more of our most precious resource. Because we care.

F&N ICE MOUNTAIN Drinking Water now in new sustainable packaging,
As Singaporeans are becoming more aware of the need to go green through the various government green initiatives, Singaporeans are looking for ways do their part from recycling initiatives and eco-friendly products like reusable straws and biodegradable food packaging to reducing the reliance on single-use plastic. True to the global and national call towards adopting environmentally-friendly practices, F&N introduces its drinking water in two sustainable types of packaging – 300ml can and 500ml carton, for F&N ICE MOUNTAIN drinking water. As the number one water brand in Singapore¹, it aims to empower consumers to make eco-conscious decisions by making sustainability convenient.
New sustainable paper packaging
To reduce single-use plastics, F&N ICE MOUNTAIN drinking water is packed in wholly recyclable paper carton. The carton uses Forest Stewardship Council (FSC™) certified paperboard, which means it has been sourced from responsibly managed forests and other controlled sources. Even the bottle cap is recyclable, as it’s made from a type of bio-based material derived from sugar cane which is a renewable source. F&N ICE MOUNTAIN drinking water is available in 500ml paper cartons and is both halal & HCS certified.
Aluminum cans are recyclable too
For those who prefer a quick hydration fix, F&N Ice MOUNTAIN drinking water also comes in cans made from aluminum. The can packaging will allow for a much easier method and cost-effective in recycling metal. It can be recycled continuously without losing its properties, and the recycling of metal reduces the environmental impacts associated with metal mining and production. F&N ICE MOUNTAIN Drinking Water in cans is available in 300ml aluminum cans and is both halal & HCS certified. Apart from making strides in sustainable packaging for drinking water, F&N continues to participate in efforts towards a greener Singapore. In 2019 F&N took part in an initiative to place Reverse Vending Machines (RVMs) across Singapore to encourage recycling in the community.
So, go ahead to rehydrate any time of the day with F&N ICE MOUNTAIN drinking water, and you’ll get to quench your thirst and do your part in protecting the environment for many generations to come.

“Road to Zero” and “Green Management 2025”
Featured on the CDP’s climate change “A-list” for the second year in a row, Sony continues to work on its long-term environmental plan called “Road to Zero”, which aims to achieve net-zero emissions across the entire Sony Group by 2040 and a zero environmental footprint by 2050. Under our medium-term targets, “Green Management 2025”, major focus areas include:
1) Elimination of plastic packaging for newly designed small products
To replace plastic packaging, Sony developed ‘Original Blended Material’, which uses plants with a short growth cycle like bamboo, and post-consumer recycled paper. This material is used in the packaging for our flagship headphones, WF-1000XM4 and WH-1000XM5.
2) Adoption of recycled plastic
SORPLAS™ is a high-performance recycled plastic developed by Sony which uses 99% recycled content. SORPLAS™ has been introduced into various products, including certain BRAVIA XR™ OLED[1] TV models for some regions, reducing overall virgin plastic use in BRAVIA by approximately 60%. SORPLAS™ can also be recycled several times with little performance loss.
3) Reduction of product power consumption
Sony targets to reduce annual energy consumption per product by 5% by fiscal year 2025 compared to the fiscal year 2018 level. In TVs, lower power consumption is achieved with technology that automatically adjusts the screen brightness according to the surrounding environment and the video scene.
4) Introduction of renewable energy
Sony has brought forward its target to use 100% renewable electricity at all business sites by 10 years to 2030. In Southeast Asia, the Sony Technology (Thailand) Co., Ltd. Chonburi factory is on track, with solar panels generating approximately 2.7 million Kilowatt hours (kWh) annually, equivalent to a reduction of approximately 3.1 kiloton (kt) of CO2.
