If you need a reason to be optimistic about the future of climate change, you've come to the right place. 

Vince Siu, founder of SUSTAINHK, joins podcast host Jasmine Lee to talk about the state of sustainability in Hong Kong. What's holding back Hongkongers and the government from prioritising climate change? What are the startups that are changing the green game? And why is Vince still optimistic in 2020? Listen to find out.  

UPDATE: Since the original recording of this interview, Hong Kong announced it would commit to going carbon neutral by 2050. Great news, but this is just the start of the hard work the city will have to put in to meet that goal.

In the spirit of the Halloween season, this episode of Spyglass takes a closer look at two chilling stories that took place in Hong Kong. The first is about a man whose GPS takes him on a mysterious detour while biking through a wooded area known for its supernatural activity. The second covers a murder case that begins on Halloween night when the police arrive at the apartment of a wealthy banker to find a dead body, a bloodied knife, and a large suitcase on the balcony.

Trigger warning for explicit details of graphic violence, sexual assault, and drug use.
