#SeastainableStories is a series by Seastainable to feature amazing ocean conservationists and advocates! We believe that everyone can play a part in contributing to healthier and happier oceans.
This week, we are featuring Joline Tang, founder of The Sustainability Project (TSP), one of Seastainable’s consignment partners in Singapore. The Sustainability Project is a Singapore-based business which aims to encourage and inspire the adoption of low or zero waste lifestyle in your life. This is done through its three arms: Educate, Transform and Inspire. From what started as a blog in 2017 to a zero-waste shop in 2018, TSP has since then conducted numerous talks, workshops, and educational trips to make a difference in her community.
Read on and get to know more about the one-woman team of The Sustainability Project:
What sparked your interest in conservation?
My passion for sustainability started in 2011 when I first started collecting papers that were being used on one side by my friends. Since then, I became what they called the garang guni girl haha. It caused me to think about the amount of waste we create as individuals and I started to recycled more avidly. Also, I kept items which I think would be useful in the future, that I did not want to throw away (which are still with me!). In my community, I started new projects, ran an environmental club in my school, did an internship in sustainability reporting, and worked in a sustainable start-up. Through these experiences, it always felt right for me to do work related to sustainability--there was a spark. It's been a long journey of 8 years and counting!
Why do you think it is important to pursue conservation?
As cliche as it may sound, we only have one earth to live in and if we do not treasure it, I believe we are being very foolish and ignorant to ignore the harms we are making to the environment.
What/Who inspired you to start your organization?
TSP started as a blog during my internship as I wanted to share more about sustainability in Singapore itself. I felt that there weren't many places spreading awareness on how to be sustainable in Singapore and because I love reading and writing, I decided to start this little passion project - The Sustainability Project.
The shop portion was mainly inspired by Lauren Singer as she started a packaged free shop in the US. The reason why I started the shop was that I wanted to provide our readers with an avenue to make that switch and I wanted zero-waste products to be more accessible to Singaporeans.
How did you meet the members of your team?
TSP is actually a one-woman show. I am fortunate to have many people sign in to be a volunteer with us at the start. Subsequently, we got interns, too! I meet them mainly through Instagram as that is where we connect with like-minded individuals.
Give us a fun fact about yourself!
Oh no! I do not think I am fun enough to have a fun fact! 😅 I guess one fun fact is that I can eat pasta every day and not get sick of it 😋
What is your advice to people who want to pursue a career in conservation, but may not have the ‘conservation’ e.g. science/research related background?
Take a leap of faith and try it out because there is no harm trying, right? But you must always be prepared physically and mentally on the hardships that will come along the way.
A piece of advice you would like to give to our readers about the future of our planet?
Never underestimate your power to do something for Mother Earth.
What are the next steps that you want to take to save our ocean?
For me, sustainability is about everything--the oceans, the trees, the land, the air, and the animals! We should try to be as broad as we can so we don't have a particular area that we set for now but maybe more TSP X Seastainable collaborations!

Generally, East and South East Asia have been praised for their approach to handling the pandemic and getting it under control more successfully than the rest of the world. Many people put this down to their previous experience with the SARS outbreak between 2002 and 2004. However, consistent advice, swift action and stricter government intervention also played a role. Whatever the reason, experts predict that the many Asian countries who were able to return to normal more quickly will have a financial advantage over the parts of the world that were not.The fate of the economy in 2021 will also determine the long-term economic outlook. Right now, we will argue that the optimistic scenario seems more likely, but a negative reversal is also into play. Will Europe’s Next Generation EU and Biden’s economic policies succeed in stabilizing the global economy and set the world on track for a brighter and more sustainable future? Will Asian economies gain ground in trade and technological innovation and set the foundations to become the dominant forces in the global scene? https://financer.com/ To analyze the trends of 2021, we need to take a look back at the year 2020 and where we are starting from. Black swan events, such as the Coronavirus pandemic affected every country on the globe. However, that doesn’t mean we’re all starting the new financial year in the same boat. In the following graph, you can see the GDP growth and unemployment rates of the top 10 GDP countries in the world.
The year 2020 will forever be defined by the worldwide Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. At the time of writing, there have been over 114 million cases and over 2.5 million lives claimed, and devastatingly, those numbers continue to grow each day. This highly contagious virus has not just impacted those infected, specific countries or sectors. However, the whole world has felt the impact of COVID-19, and for many that impact was financial.Unsurprisingly, the aviation industry has been one of the hardest hit throughout the pandemic. IATA described the severity of the situation in their December 2020 Air Passenger Market Analysis. “The year 2020 brought an unprecedented challenge to the airline industry in a form of closed borders, strict travel controls, and depressed travel confidence – all effects of the pandemic. RPKs plunged by a dramatic 66% compared with 2019 – eight times faster than during the 12 months following the 9/11 attacks – considered to be the most severe aviation crisis prior to 2020.” https://financer.com/ Elizabeth Becker, writing for Foreign Policy believes some countries might not want to go back to pre-pandemic tourism levels. “Overnight, much of the world went from over-tourism to no tourism. Since then, locals have seen how their lives have improved without those insane crowds: clear skies with vistas stretching for miles, a drastic reduction of litter and waste, clean shorelines and canals, and a return of wildlife.”, which she says could make travel to such places more expensive than we have become accustomed to.
