It was an absolute pleasure hearing @EstherVincentXM @RainyStarryNyt and @pitchaya share their works and discussing pertinent environmental issues during the Concrete Jungle panel discussion at @sgwritersfest. They shared important messages that everyone needs to hearπ

1/2 As #COP peaks the idea that we, the people, might want to play our part is being lost. But 30% of greenhouse gases come from our food, and one thing we can all do to help is eat less meat, and more fresh veg.
Have you bought your tickets to the Singapore Writers Festival? I will be moderating two panel discussions, one on food waste and the other on writing about nature and the environment. Tickets are available at https://t.co/pOWNiTPu0h. Join us!
Hantu Blog volunteer Nicholas Chew has his image of ray from Hantu reefs featured in today's news paper! And complements an exciting study to boot! Lots of exciting stuff happening in Singapore's marine realm!
@alexalexyang It was in the news. They had 90% of the bank details of Singaporeans (some people don't have bank accounts), and called for people to submit their banking details.
@SCommies@IngrahamAngle The US has many many wet markets... a wet market doesn't mean it sells exotic meat. It's defined as a marketplace selling fresh meat, fish, produce, and other perishable goods as distinguished from "dry markets" that sell durable goods such as fabric and electronics.
@shascan009@IngrahamAngle US has wet markets you fool. Wikipedia: A wet market (also called a public market) is a marketplace selling fresh meat, fish, produce, and other perishable goods as distinguished from "dry markets" that sell durable goods such as fabric and electronics.
@wiresgirl38@IngrahamAngle I would like to see the US produce everything on its own, including raw materials. And no one will buy your products = no jobs/industries. "Greatest country" is very subjective... you are too caught up with this ego of being the best.
@IngrahamAngle Wet markets are an inherent part of Asian culture, and not all wet markets are the same. Singapore wet markets don't sell exotic animals. Your comment is insensitive and it demonstrates your ignorance.
