Raja Ampat is paradise under threat. 🌿🌊

In this episode of Attributions, we travel to one of Indonesia’s most biodiverse regions — a place where coral reefs meet ancient forests, and Indigenous wisdom guides stewardship of the land and sea.

But behind the beauty, something darker is surfacing. Nickel and coal mining — framed as part of the world’s "green transition" — are endangering the very ecosystems and communities they claim to help.

🎙️ Join us as we dive into the growing fight to save Raja Ampat — where biodiversity, culture, and climate justice converge in one of the most urgent environmental frontlines in Southeast Asia.

Floods, droughts, cyclones — Asia faces it all. But anticipatory action is proving that resilience is possible.

Asia is warming nearly twice as fast as the rest of the world — and 2024 was among its hottest years on record. The result: devastating floods in Nepal, droughts in China, and Cyclone Yagi’s destructive path across Southeast Asia. But alongside the losses, there are lessons in resilience.

This episode of Attributions explores the World Meteorological Organization’s latest State of the Climate in Asia Report. From anticipatory action in Nepal that saved over 130,000 lives, to the urgent warnings that every fraction of a degree matters, the message is clear: science is not just data — it’s protection, dignity, and hope.

Will Asia act fast enough to prevent a four-degree future? Tune in to uncover the science, the stories, and the choices shaping our survival.

Welcome to Attributions!

In this episode, we speak with Ma Thandar Ko Gyi — a diver and marine conservationist — about the complex challenges facing Myanmar’s ocean and the people who depend on it.

From the silent threat of ghost gear to the pressures of plastic pollution and climate change, Myanmar’s coastal communities are on the frontlines of a crisis that is both environmental and deeply human.

🎧 Join us as we dive beneath the surface to uncover how culture, conservation, and courage come together in one woman’s mission to protect the sea.
