<p>India has some of the strongest environmental laws, along with ambitious climate action targets over the coming decade. Since climate change was brought into the mainstream, everyday people from all walks of life and all ages are taking stands and making noise about the environment. </p> <p>Common folks are finding ways to contribute to the effort, who are not lawyers, educators or policymakers with the "power" to make a big change. These are people who have made climate a personal priority, which extends to their household or community. </p> <p>In this tenth episode of the podcast, we speak to impact entrepreneur Antaraa Vasudev [Founder of Civis] and Navdha Malhotra [Associate Campaign Director, Purpose] who leads the Purpose Climate Labs in India, about the role of citizens in the climate movement. </p>

<p>For the longest time, breast cancer was perceived as a disease restricted to older women. That's no longer the case – men and younger women also succumb to it, and the disease is also getting more prevalent. </p> <p>Thankfully, breast cancer is also very treatable if detected early. We speak with Dr Rucha Kaushik, Consulting Breast Cancer Surgeon at P D Hinduja Hospital & MRC in Mumbai, at the end of Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October. Dr Rucha deconstructs the disease, how a self-test works, and helps us bust a few commons myths about breast cancer.<br> </p>

<p>When we think of malnutrition in India, we think of the poorest sections of our society where access to education & nutritious food are not a guarantee. But, do you and me – people in India’s cities – also have trouble meeting their nutrition needs? </p> <p>Poor land productivity, impacts of changing climate, poverty and lack of livelihood opportunities are driving mostly the rural poor into towns and cities, many of which are already strained for resources. Nutrition is complex, and tied to a lot of socioeconomic and behavioural factors. </p> <p>In our eighth episode, we speak to Vinita Bali, a prominent businesswoman on the boards of multiple organisations that work in the nutrition & education, and Inoshi Sharma, director of the top food safety and standards regulator in India, to better understand malnutrition in urban India. But also, where the government's role ends, and where each of ours begins, in ensuring we eat safe and nutritious meals.</p>
