TACKLING HEAT AT SENTOSA
At Sentosa, efforts are underway to tackle rising temperatures through infrastructure and design.
The resort island is developing a network of 10 “cool nodes” at high-footfall areas by 2027, featuring misting systems, outdoor fans and heat-reducing pavement coatings.
“For climate adaptation, the guests will be able to look at our cool nodes, understanding both the design and the experience, which is part of the Sentosa cooling network,” said Mr Anthony Tan, sustainability director of Sentosa Development Corporation.
“It’s important for us to continuously adapt and make Sentosa a climate-smart destination, so that tourists as well as Singaporeans can enjoy Sentosa for generations to come.”
