We start with news of London's Heathrow Airport suspending operations to a fire that happened hours before recording. Join us, Anelka, Nico and Viwaswan as we share the possible ripple effects of the disruption at the world's 4th busiest airport. This week saw Singapore's third monsoon surge (and our favourite sweater weather). But why the monsoon surge and is it all good? We discuss the impacts and possible reasons for the surge, including La Nina. Dust off your geography books as we talk about the bigger picture of climate change, with a focus on human (anthropogenic) causes. 2024 also marked a monumental point in the fight against climate change. To end of, we exchange our hopes for future climate action while sharing current adaptation measures we see in daily life. We do so with references to our experiences and lessons from pre-university and at NUS (mainly HSI1000: How Science Works, Why Science Works and CDE2501: Liveable cities). During the break, we delve into more lighthearted news on Singapore being the second happiest country (#34 globally) in Asia. We share what makes us happy living here. It's a packed episode so hang on tight!Clarification: At the end of the year, Singapore experiences the Northeast Monsoon; and experiences the Southwest monsoon mid-year.
