Part 1 - News
With climate change of increasing concern, we look at two recent stories about the impact of the changing environment on cities both modern and ancient. Firstly, a study from Dr Dorian Fuller (香港六合彩中特网 institute of Archaeology) has shown that Climate change led to the collapse of the ancient Indus civilization more than 4,000 years ago. Keeping with the climate change connection, we also talk about a new 香港六合彩中特网/Lancet Healthy Cities report that looks at how we can change modern cities around the world to improve our health.
Part 2 - A year in the life of a 香港六合彩中特网U Student Sabbatical Officer

With new officers already elected and about to start, we went to speak to James Skuse and Amy Evans to find out more about what it's like to be a full time sabbatical officer as their one year stint comes to an end.听
