Singapore G1 stands for Singapore Green One Campaign created by the Singapore Environment Council. Organised by the SEC for the second time, the event will be the Republic's largest environmentally-sustainable lifestyle event.

This campaign hopes to reduce carbon footprint by increasing awareness of the issue and also to encourage people to walk for shorter distances instead of driving. There will be a walkathon on 2 September to encourage people to walk for shorter distances instead of driving.

This year's theme, Live Green, is distinctive as it marries both "healthy living and the environment".

Everyone can play a part in reducing their carbon footprint, and what we aim to do is to show how a simple act like walking a little more each day can lead not just to the reduction of one's carbon footprint, but can help in keeping one healthy.
