” We might believe flooding, particularly in areas that are not properly prepared for these types of extremes, and we might even see some heat-related problems caused by heatwaves. Naturally this can create a range of problems overall”, said Dr Mengaldo.
He added that in Southeast Asia, including Singapore, people can expect extreme weather events to materialize three to four times more often.
” We might have disturbance in the supply chain if, for example, we have neighbouring states affected by large-scale flooding or wildfires that can offer to produce failure, water contaminants, among people”.
MORE Homes, WEARABLE SENSORS?
Dr. Mengaldo urged Singapore to build more shelters and give outside workers portable sensors to track their health in real time as a response to the rising heat wave wave rate.  ,
For those who are suffering from anxiety or heat-related illnesses, these sensors might induce warnings.
Every six months, the mixed-use condominium workers at China Construction ( South Pacific ) Development’s site in Clarke Quay are trained in what to do in arid conditions.
Additionally, they are subject to normal health briefings in both their native languages and English.
