FAQ

Common questions

Answer-first, drawn from the same data above.

How risky is Singapore?
Singapore runs low across the board; strong social keeps overall risk contained. Its overall risk score is 24 out of 100 (low), blended from World Bank, INFORM Risk Index and ND-GAIN Country Index.
What drives Singapore's risk?
Singapore's highest pressures are governance (41, medium) and nature (23). Its strongest area is social (13).
How might Singapore's climate change by 2080?
Singapore's climate zones stay broadly stable through 2080 even under a high-emissions scenario (SSP5-8.5); its Koppen-based climate-hazard pressure index holds near 76 out of 100. This forward-looking outlook is separate from the historical ND-GAIN scores.
How much will Singapore warm by 2080?
Under a high-emissions scenario (SSP5-8.5), Singapore is on track to warm by +2.5 °C by 2080, with annual precipitation changing by +76 mm; under lower emissions (SSP2-4.5) the warming is about +1.7 °C. Based on CMIP6 multi-model projections against a 1970-2000 baseline.
How much will sea levels rise along Singapore's coast?
Coastal sea level along Singapore is projected to rise by +0.82 m by 2100 under a high-emissions scenario (SSP5-8.5), and by about +0.60 m under lower emissions (SSP2-4.5). Based on the regional median of IPCC AR6 projections.
How will water stress change in Singapore?
The share of Singapore under high water stress is projected to move from 0% today to 0% by 2080 under a high-emissions scenario (SSP5-8.5). Based on WRI Aqueduct projections.
How will river-flood exposure change in Singapore?
The share of Singapore exposed to river flooding is projected to move from 0% today to 0% by 2080 under a high-emissions scenario (SSP5-8.5). Based on WRI Aqueduct riverine-flood projections.
When was Singapore's risk data last updated?
Updated August 2026, drawing on World Bank, INFORM Risk Index and ND-GAIN Country Index.
