SOS (Students Of Singapore) Campaign Against Haze

My campaign
I have launched the SOS campaign to educate people about the causes of the haze, and help them find ways to reduce their usage of products from unsustainable sources.

This blog that I launched contains information on the causes of haze, links to information on sustainable palm oil and paper products, and alternatives. There is a ‘pledge page’  where to date 232 people have committed to using sustainable palm oil products. In invite you to join us by pledging to address the root cause of the haze by taking action to change your consumption.

The purpose of this campaign
The haze is our problem to solve too. Although the haze is temporarily absent, we can’t wait for governments to take action, or for someone else to make the change. All of us need to pitch in to work towards sustainability, by addressing the crux of the matter. By changing the products we use, and switching to sustainable palm oil products certified by the Roundtable Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), and by using paper certified by the FSC, we can get one step closer to our ultimate goal: sustainability. The more I learn, the more passionate I become, the more ideas I have for my project. I invite the UWCSEA and Singapore community to come together and help end Southeast Asia’s most pressing humanitarian and environmental issue.

  1. Congrats on your success at winning the Beyond the Haze competition! Very jealous of you going to Sumatra. By the way have you seen this palm oil shoppers app? https://itunes.apple.com/sg/app/id671945416
