Fisherwomen on the north coast of Java Island are pushing back against plans to dredge sea sand for export, saying they fear it will worsen coastal erosion and harm marine ecosystems.
The next 10 years have been designated the decade to combat sand and dust storms, which are becoming more frequent due to climate change. Storms kill people prematurely and reduce the efficiency of solar panels, slowing the energy transition.
Oil was spotted in waters off Changi on Singapore's east coast, four days after a tanker collision near the island state's southern waters. Authorities will assess if habitat restoration efforts are needed.
Public beaches on Singapore's resort island of Sentosa as well as East Coast Park were closed to swimmers after a tanker collision at a port terminal caused oil to spill into the waters.
