Geography in the News aims to stimulate discussion about the relevance of geography to our lives and its importance in helping us to make sense of the world around us. In this first edition we have selected a relevant news article, with links to our GCSE Geography specifications and suggested questions for you to discuss with your students.

"How is climate change affecting hurricanes, typhoons and cyclones?"

This article explores the impact of climate change on the intensity, frequency, and
distribution of tropical cyclones, and how they might change in the future.
