Given many disasters due to climate changes, environmental degradation and human activities, such as the great Tsunami in Asia, The Tsunami in Japan (2011), forest-fires in Indonesia and many others, which negatively impact the daily life, health and income of millions of people, environmental protection and management is a collective responsibility of relevant stakeholders across countries. Adoption of corporate social responsibility (CSR) is one of the approaches which can help firms enhance their environmental performance. This chapter aims to revisit the concept of corporate social responsibility in the context of environmental protection, explore how banks practise CSR to protect the environment, using the banking sector in Singapore as a case study, and discuss policy implications on CSR practice to protect the environment at the corporate level.
