Why Asia is warming at twice the global average? 

🎙️ Asia’s climate crisis is unfolding in water — sometimes too much, sometimes not enough.

In this episode of Attributions, we explore the twin extremes of Asia’s growing water emergency: the floods that drown homes, and the droughts that quietly collapse livelihoods. From the melting glaciers of the Himalayas to the rain-starved deltas of Southeast Asia, a shifting climate is disrupting everything — food, culture, survival.

With water-related disasters now dominating Asia’s natural catastrophes, we ask: what will it take to protect the people most at risk?

🎧 Listen in to understand why climate action in Asia must begin with water.
