In 2018, Yeo started a campaign BYO Bottle SG to advocate against single-use plastics in Singapore. The initiative has worked with 231 drink stalls and reached out to close to 10,000 people. She achieved 2nd Prize in the Goi Peace Foundation International Essay Contest for Young People for her essay titled “The Battle Against Plastic Pollution”. Yeo was one of the organisers of the We The Planet climate strikes for Earth Day 2020. She then co-founded Re-Earth Initiative, an international youth-led NGO striving to make the climate movement more accessible to all. She also helped to organise the Virtual Youth Environment Assembly, organised by the U.N. Environmental Programme’s youth constituency. In April 2021, she was a panellist at the Othering & Belonging Summit, alongside writer and climate activist Naomi Klein and other youth advocates Tokata Iron Eyes, Xiye Bastida and Samia Dumbuya. Yeo attended the COP27 conference in Egypt in 2022 to look at how the international trade of carbon credits will be rolled out. After the conference, she spoke about remaining "stubbornly hopeful". In 2023, she was named to the Eco-Business Youth A-List. She sees a need to "focus on what can be done locally" in order to drive genuine climate action. Yeo has also actively spoken out on the need for stronger inclusion of Southeast Asian youths in the climate movement. COVID-19 Initiative
