ST 2Mar2015: Ms Figueres, who is on a two-day visit here, said Singapore was a good example of how integrating nature with urban planning has helped it control the city's heat, and protect and increase biodiversity.

"When I was riding a bicycle in the city, I almost felt like this was the city of the future. It has been so well-planned, with concentrated urban populations that nonetheless have access to very efficient public transportation and nature," she said.

She added that Singapore could act as a role model for developing nations that are quickly becoming more urbanised, and also help other small island states that do not have its resources.
