Climate change and Singapore
The Northern Sea Route (NSR), located in the Arctic, is a shipping route linking the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean. The heightened focus on the Arctic of late is primarily due to the impacts of climate change and the fact that these changes are occurring at an unprecedented rate in this region. Present...
