Fast fashion is one of the world’s biggest polluters, but some changemakers are rewriting the script. In this episode, we spotlight Jiwya, a slow fashion brand founded by two textile scientists who left their corporate lives in the US to build a supply chain that’s 100% plant-based and regenerative. After exploring over 200 Indian cities and learning from heritage crafts, they’ve created clothes that come from the soil — and go back to the soil. Now, Jiwya is making waves at the London Fashion Week. Join us as we sit down with co-founder Aishwarya Lahariya to hear how fashion can be reimagined with purpose, sustainability, and human touch.

From Kedarnath in 2013 to Chamoli in 2021, and now Dharali in 2025, the Himalayas have faced one disaster after another. Yet the warnings keep going unheard. In this episode, we revisit the latest Uttarakhand floods and the Supreme Court’s chilling remarks about Himachal Pradesh’s fragile ecology. We explore how climate change, reckless construction, and unregulated tourism are pushing the Himalayas to the brink — and what this means for millions who depend on them.

Carbon credits were supposed to be a climate solution—letting companies offset their emissions by funding green projects elsewhere. But are they really reducing carbon… or just buying time for polluters?

In this episode of Mission Planet A, we uncover the flaws of the Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM), reveal why VCM 2.0 might still be a PR stunt, and explore how these projects often harm the very communities they claim to help.

🎧 Listen now to find out why the promise of “carbon neutrality” might be one of the biggest climate illusions yet.
