A severe heatwave has swept across much of Asia this year, causing deaths and school closures in India and record-breaking temperatures in China

In Singapore, the highest daily maximum temperature was 36.1 degrees Celsius, recorded at Woodlands on 14 April.

This is a cause for concern especially for young people, who are increasingly more interested about sustainability and climate issues.

A group of final year NTU students have come up with a campaign that aims to raise awareness about the harmful impact of fast furniture and promote sustainable furniture practices among young and new homeowners.

On Mind Your Business, Lynlee Foo and Ryan Huang find out more from Nicolette Wee, Campaign Lead, Turntable Tribe, a student-led initiative, and one of the industry partners, Teng Chu Yu, Sustainability Executive at the Singapore Furniture Industries Council, to talk about their sustainability campaign supported by the Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment's SG Eco Fund.
