Singapore's food rescue platform exemplifies how surplus food redistribution can reduce waste and feed communities sustainably. Retailers and consumers can access discounted, nearly-expired food, ensuring edible resources are not wasted. Similar models exist worldwide, emphasizing that effective logistics and digital platforms are vital for scaling food rescue.

Cultivated meat—grown from animal cells—promises to replace traditional livestock farming, which consumes vast land, water, and energy, and produces significant waste. In Singapore, regulatory approval of cultivated chicken illustrates a promising shift toward sustainable protein sources.
