SCARCE Laboratory Featured in a National Geographic Documentary

In line with the Year Towards Zero Waste, National Geographic collaborated with the Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources (MEWR) on a #RecycleRight campaign to motivate Singaporeans to recycle more and recycle right. This includes a co-organised community outreach event on 15 and 16 June 2019, at HDB Hub Toa Payoh, and a video series titled “Green Heroes”, which features National Geographic Explorer Arthur Huang.

The series showcased Arthur’s exploration of Singapore’s eco-initiatives as it moves towards becoming a Zero Waste Nation. Arthur’s visited Semakau Landfill, the SCARCE laboratory at Nanyang Technological University, and SembCorp’s Material Recovery Facility, where he learnt about waste management in Singapore and how all of these play a part in developing Singapore’s circular economy.
