'Not a Natural Disaster': Rains Triggered Wayanad Landslides, But There's More
In today's newsletter, we dive deep into factors that led to the tragic landslides in Wayanad, and stress on the importance of climate-resilient cities as the reality of climate change hits us hard.
The death toll from landslides in Kerala's Wayanad now stands at 276. In two separate pieces, we talk to climate experts and scientists to examine the other factors that led to the natural disaster – beyond the excessive rains that acted as a trigger. Also, we highlight the dilemma faced by a UGC-NET qualified assistant professor – in his own words. Finally, although our Olympic athletes are hunting for glory in Paris, are we all 'hurdling' through the Indian Monsoon Olympics at home? Check out our special comic series.
