Interested to learn what goes on behind-the-scenes at Green Nudge? Here are some thoughts by Audrey who is on an internship with us through her school’s programme called ‘Quest’. Here is a short account of her weekly experiences during her last month at Green Nudge!
This weekend, Green Nudge had a beach cleanup planned that I was supposed to help facilitate. Unfortunately, because of heavy rain that was expected to go over the island in the forecast, the team made the decision to cancel the cleanup to take extra safety precautions. Situations like this show that it is crucial to keep an open mind and to be ready to make last-minute decisions, even if they are difficult. I am so grateful to be able to learn from the Green Nudge team and see how they handle different circumstances!
By using social media platforms to post exciting content or updates, companies can reach out to new people and keep old viewers engaged. Before joining Green Nudge, I never realized the amount of effort and detail that has to go into each post to tell a story or send an important message. As I am helping to create content for Green Nudge’s social media, I found that looking back at their old posts is a great way for me to find examples of how to capture the viewers’ attention and write an interesting caption.
As my internship at Green Nudge ends, I want to express my gratitude for the amazing opportunity this has been. I have learned so much from the Green Nudge team and have been exposed to the many different sides of running a social enterprise. I am also extremely thankful for my supervisors and co-workers for being so supportive of me the entire time and making me feel welcome from the very beginning. No matter the path I take in the future, I am confident that I can apply the many skills I have learned here to help me.
Audrey has since ended her internship with us. We are glad to have had Audrey on-board to work on a research project with us and are heartened to hear her takeaways during her short stint with us. We wish her all the best and a bright future ahead! 🙂

If our economy is built on growing consumption, then waste is not some unfortunate byproduct — it is the expected outcome. While there is reason to acknowledge the efforts made over the years, the released 2024 waste figures by National Environment Agency also reveal something deeper we need to reflect on.

In recent times where efficiency is prioritised and often seen as the default, what does it really mean to be useful? What do we lose when we discard the ‘inconvenient’ in a culture that values speed and optimisation? At Green Nudge, we talk a lot about sustainability for the planet. But increasingly, perhaps the harder (and more important) conversation is about where that intersects with relationships — how we stay in connection so the change we want to see can truly last.

Singapore recently concluded another round of general elections. We showed up, queued, verified our identity, and were handed a small slip of paper to mark our vote and drop into a ballot box. In a world where almost everything has gone digital — from banking to paying for drinks — why are we still voting with paper and what’s the environmental cost of doing so?
