How does climate and weather affect your personal life? For me, I hate it when it is very hot and humid. Hence, Malaysia is too hot (average daily temperature is between 27-30 degrees Celcius) and humid (average relative humidity is between 80-90%) for me. I kind of like it cooler. Hence, I have bought a small aprtment in Tringkap, Cameron Highlands. I plan to retire and live there. The temperature in Tringkap ranges from 15 degrees Celcius in the early mornings to about 25 degrees in the afternoon. The hot sun in Penang is also damaging to my skin since ultra-violet rays are penetrating our atmosphere due to thinning of the ozone layer. So, if I need to stay outdoors I need to apply some sun tan lotion or use an umbrella. The rainy season is also disrupting some of my outdoor work and activities.

How does the weather and climate affect you guys?

iklim d malaysia semain hari smeakin panas. ini adalah di sebabkan oleh pemanasan global yg d alami oleh seluruh dunia terutamanya d negara-negara maju dan malaysia tidak terkecuali seperti d bandar2 besar spt kuala lumpur, penang..
langit sudah tidak kelihatan terlalu biru seperti d kpg2 atau d kawasan yg kurang kegiatan perindustrian..
ini menyebabkan, sinaran ultra ungu sgt hampir kpd kita yg sesungguhnya noleh meyebabkan kanser kulit, katarak mata..ini adalah sebahagian kecil kesan dprd iklim yg melampau yg d sebabkan oleh kegiatan manusia yg menguruskan alam tanpa menitikberatkan konsep pembangunan mapan @ sustainability..

betul cakap anda Syarilla! Saya harap anda ambil tindakan hidup secara mapan - tidak guna beg plastik; makan dengan pinggan-mangkuk di kantin; tidak guna bungkusan plastik tetapi guna tupperware; jalan kaki dan kongsi kereta; tutup swis elektrik jika tidak diguna; guna kipas dan haramkan aircon; dan lain-lain
