Driving practical climate action through industry–regulator dialogue

Organised by the SIA Sustainability Committee, the seminar brought practitioners, regulators, and innovators together for meaningful cross-discussions on policy direction, industry data, and what is material and realistic for the sector—while continuing to advance Singapore’s green building ambitions. BSD contributed to the conversation through Tiffany’s sharing, covering key sustainability priorities for the built environment, including Green Mark 2025 updates, the industry’s adoption of the BCA Code of Practice for Environmental Sustainability, and the importance of considering embodied carbon early in the design process. The panel discussion further reinforced the value of stakeholder feedback and collaboration in shaping practical, impactful pathways toward climate mitigation and adaptation.
