A podcast on international economic policy, environment, sustainability and governance within the context of climate finance.
"With eyes on the future and the reintegration of globally displaced youth on our minds, few of us found eachother echoing the sentiment to harness the power of podcasting, and engaging with an audience in meaningful ways. Hence HURRICANE, where we pool in knowledge and experience in our respective fields and geographies, to demystify the workings of specific global developments, and enable people, especially youth, to participate in an educated discourse on the shape of our world."
Kartik wears the legacy of his forefathers as agriculturists on the world stage to draw attention to the perils of climate inaction. With a level of self awareness unusual for one so young, he is a Facilitator for Plastic Action with UNEP, a Youth Advocate with UNICEF, Ambassador for Joti Foundation, BeVisioneer for Marcedes Benz, Youth Advisor for Google. I can only describe my first chat with him surreal, over a patchy wireless connection on his farm cloistered in a room with his parents on the outside. Indubitably, we had a lot of ground to cover across generations in India.
