    Once considered rare, extreme rainfall events are now becoming a regular and destructive reality across Asia. In this episode of Attributions, we speak with Dr. Mariam Zachariah, a climate scientist with the World Weather Attribution initiative, about what’s behind this shift and what it means for countries like Sri Lanka, Indonesia and Malaysia.

    From the science of climate attribution to the social consequences of floods, we unpack how human-driven climate change is increasing the intensity and frequency of extreme rainfall, and why vulnerable communities are paying the highest price.

  • Running on Empty: The Climate Finance Crisis Ahead of COP30
    Dec 16 2025

    Asia is facing record heat, rising floods and growing displacement, yet adaptation finance remains far below what countries need to stay safe.

    In our new episode of Attributions, we speak with Jeni Miller about what the UNEP Adaptation Gap Report 2025 reveals about the climate finance crisis after COP30, and what this means for health systems, food security, Indigenous communities and frontline workers across Asia.

    Adaptation is not only a financial issue. It is a fairness issue.
    Those least responsible for the climate crisis are facing the greatest risks.

    This episode explores:
    • why the adaptation finance gap is widening
    • what outdated adaptation plans mean for real communities
    • how extreme weather is intensifying faster than resilience systems
    • the urgent need for health and food system adaptation
    • the growing debt concerns in developing countries
    • the path to a fair and equitable climate finance goal
    • why adaptation must be guided by climate justice

    If you work in climate, sustainability or public policy, this conversation is essential.
