  1. "Getting to Net Zero" This project was driven by a collaborative study by IPUR, the Lee Kuan Yew Centre for Innovative Cities (LKYCIC) at SUTD, and the Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment. The study sought to understand what Singaporeans think about the 2050 Net Zero target and the actions that could be taken to move towards the target. The study also wanted to understand the public’s knowledge and perceptions of Net Zero.Background research: Systematic literature review on public support for Net ZeroThis study conducts a systematic literature review of 168 scientific papers published since 2010 to examine the drivers of public support for Net Zero policies worldwide.
