Big finance, media and government websites are the least climate friendly, SME sites the most. B Corp sites perform better than the average, but many still rely on fossil-powered hosting, revealing a digital sustainability credibility gap.

Without traceability in the fisheries supply chain into Singapore, the catch traded at Jurong Fishery Port cannot be labelled "sustainable", say conservationists. The government says it supports sustainable fisheries management practices in line with international obligations and national laws.
