The Sustainability Leadership A-List Youth winner tells Eco-Business about the Singapore he wants to see: a carbon-neutral decarbonisation pioneer that has stopped financing fossil fuels in Southeast Asia.
Faced with extreme weather events, the region's urban centres were affected by record temperatures. This year's list – which includes a city mayor and a chief heat officer – demonstrates the importance of local governance and leadership.
The Eco-Business Sustainability Leadership Youth A-List 2023 features young activists and innovators who are coming together locally to make a difference globally. From fighting to keep a province in the Philippines coal-free to paving more sustainable roads using plastic waste, this year’s winners are “staying with the trouble” on the frontlines of the climate crisis.
