Today's sand mining is a climate threat. Yes it is.

For many of us, when we think of sand …we picture walking on a beach…some others might say an hourglass…

but little do we realize that amidst the chaos of climate change …SAND is literally slipping through our eco-system with a big invitation for a future catastrophe.

If what I just said sounds unbelievable to you, no problem at all, our guest for today Kiran Pereira is going to share a rare sand story with all of us. Kiran is the Founder & Chief Storyteller at SandStories.org.

SandStories 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.

Our conversation has been split into 3 parts. Part 1 ..i.e today’s episode will focus on problems and impacts of sand mining on our lives and the ecosystem.

Part 2 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.
