Wishcumstrue 6th Gear April 17, 2015 Share April 17, 2015 If this holds true, this climate change will inevitably effect everyone, not just for those whose daily activities that depend on the weather condition. With the average maximum daily temperature predicted to reach 34.9 to 36.7 deg C from current 31.8 deg C, this will means more demand for powering air conditioners, higher health risk, longer dry spells, increased bush fires and yes, the chocking smog/haze/smoke from the resulting burning. This will drive people indoor for longer period and increase water usage, exacerbating the situation by reducing our adaptability in a hotter and dryer Garden City. http://news.asiaone.com/news/singapore/unusually-warm-weather-may-become-norm-singapore ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lala81 Hypersonic April 17, 2015 Share April 17, 2015 The world is becoming hotter and dryer, then extreme wet weather. Thanks to climate change caused by us using fossil fuels. Sad, but i don't see it being reversible. We are lucky we aren't a farming nation. But it does mean food, electricity, water will become even more expensive in the future. In a way, our govt's lack of any subsidies for this items is a good thing. Since we are accustomed to paying through our teeth lol... 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myxilplix Turbocharged April 17, 2015 Share April 17, 2015 This is not a new thing and concerns have been raised for years. But of course alot of people are like "global warming is rubbish". Higher temps means girls wear less. My concern is the projected reduction in farmland on a worldwide level. Worst-case scenarios are projecting food shortages that will not allow us to sustain our present global population. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scion Turbocharged April 17, 2015 Share April 17, 2015 population increases -> Co2 increases -> hotter -> more aircon required -> more energy required -> more Co2 produced -> even hotter and so it goes on..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lala81 Hypersonic April 17, 2015 Share April 17, 2015 population increases -> Co2 increases -> hotter -> more aircon required -> more energy required -> more Co2 produced -> even hotter and so it goes on..... we are on the drug called cheap fossil fuel energy. And we don't want to wean ourselves off. Can't blame the less developed countries, they still have large parts of their population in poverty. Only the more well off countries can bother...

And you and me are dead. The concern has more do to with our children and the future gen. They will be the one who are going to live that world, which IMHO, is only going to accelerate. Mother nature has Her way to give nasty surprises when we are lease expecting. One moment sky will be pouring buckets in AMK Ave 3 but will be blazing hot at Ave 1 less than a km away.. And if we are to assume our live style will remain unaffected and carry on business as usual, we will be doing disservice to our next gen. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxus-MIFA9 Supersonic April 17, 2015 Share April 17, 2015 (edited) Yesterday whilst driving, heard over radio talk that the average temperature of the world had increased from 26.4 to 27.6 degrees ...... Earth is getting warmer .... If its continue for another year or so, the polar ice caps (North & South) will be melting causing wide spread flood ponding...

Ingenius Turbocharged April 17, 2015 Share April 17, 2015 (edited) Is it feasible to build a dome around SIngapore and aircondition it like the garden by the bay one ? Just thinking out of the box. Edited April 17, 2015 by Ingenius 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is possible if we build some nuclear plants in southern islands.Changi Airport can shift to Pulau Tekong with no drome. Quite exciting isn't it that we no longer need house conditioners.
