Connect to Earth

With a call to #Connect2Earth, the theme for this year's Earth Hour celebration aims to spark conversations on nature and the unique diversity of life we share our home with. It was also World Water Day and International Day of Forests last week, so in light of these significant days, we discuss issues regarding fresh water supply and biodiversity loss in Malaysia, and highlight the link between forests and our water supply. Joining us to shed light on all of this are Dominic Wong, the Director of Communications & Marketing at WWF-Malaysia, and also Siti Zuraidah Abidin, the Protected Areas Lead for WWF-Malaysia.
