You are listening to part 2 of our discussion with Kiran Pereira where we are gonna dig deep on sustainable solutions to the global sand crisis.

Kiran is the Founder & Chief Storyteller at SandStories.org. an organization that works to create awareness about the urgent need to manage our consumption of sand as a resource. They aim to bridge the gap between science, policy and industry by identifying and promoting potential solutions to the looming sand crisis.

In the previous episode i.e. ep #94 we discussed how sand touches our lives everyday via the products and services that we use. We even spoke about the massive scale at which specific types of sand are extracted from various parts of the globe to suffice human development needs. This in turn is leading us into a climate catastrophe.

If you observe keenly, you’ll notice how rarely sand and its sustainability comes up in climate change awareness conversations. Just bcoz its not being spoken much, doesn’t mean that its impacts ain’t alarming.

Doston, I’m counting on you to help us spread the word and spark a thought within your circle of influence. All you have to do is share this episode with them and start a conversation.

Our conversation has been split into 3 parts. Part 1 focuses on problems and impacts of sand mining on our lives and the ecosystem.

Part 2 i.e. today’s episode will focus on sustainable, circular solutions to today’s unsustainable sand industry

Part 3 will focus on action points for making this planet a better place.

Tune into the episode to learn more.
