As Indians, we're obsessed with food - all the way from the exquisite biryani to the questionable Chinese chaat. Unfortunately, our obsession does not extend to the production and sourcing of said food.
Our guest for this episode is Kapil Mandawewala, the founder of Edible Routes - an organisation that helps people achieve a more sustainable lifestyle through their food. As an organisation, they grow and sell organic produce while at the same time helping city-dwellers set up their own roof and balcony gardens.

Organic veggies? Bring it on. Bamboo toothbrushes? Let's do it. Metal straws? Hell yeah! Law and policy? Uh.......
Let's face it - how many times have you heard anyone talking about law and policy when it comes to climate change and sustainability? If you're like us, chances are the answer to that question is zero. But have no fear. Bhuvan Ravindran is here to help us with just that in this episode.

Construction and demolition generate A LOT of waste. In many Indian cities, the illegal dumping of this waste is rampant. But what if we could completely transform the way we think about it? Shamita Chaudhary, the founder of Malba Project, is trying to do just that. An architect and circular economy expert, her startup focuses on circularity in the built environment with an emphasis on construction and demolition waste.
