The Climapreneur Show

What are you doing? Why are you not doing the climate? Why are you working on anything else?

This is the first time in my career that I am seeing profit and purpose being connected so obviously together. You literally have a civilisation scale crisis married to the idea that the next 1000 unicorns will come from this sector. 

Anshuman Bapna | Founder Terra.do

If you if you volunteer for a plogging drive like a beach cleanliness drive or a mountain trail, trash cleanliness drive, you will have to bend down maybe 3000 times or at least a few 100 times in an hour to pick trash and just once if you do that no matter what demographic do you come from which part of the society, you will never throw trash again. Similarly, if you volunteer with any nonprofit, there are at least 1000 of them doing very good work in the remote areas of India. If you volunteer with them for any cause, especially around the environment, you would see how privileged you are. No matter how difficult your life seems right now, how bad the situation feels. Oh, my God, things are not working out. But when you see those villagers, those people in the slums or the tribal areas, and you see them, they smile, even with those limited resources, when they are not sure about the next meal, you will realise how privileged you are and you will feel like giving back to the society much more creating much more impact.

So we have to work on democratising this zero carbon emissions, it's not that I need to buy a 300 kilometre car. Mahesh, the country has to make Mahesh step into shared mobility bus and take a last mile mobility to office and so on so forth. When that happens in India, I think our task of achieving democratising zero carbon mobility in India has happened.

I knew there was a need, and I knew that need would come.

And working with compost has really taught me a lot. It satisfies my inner sense of understanding this life, and it's impermanence, and it's regeneration, and it's amazingly connected intelligence.

We have conserved more than 35,000 Crore litres of water. 

For me the challenge was doing something which was unconventional. Like we, conserving water. So my parents' business was in hardware and you know, construction, and I was talking about not continuing that and I was talking about conserving water. And that too, in a new city with a totally new set of clients. Totally the business model itself was very different.

But I'll be honest, at that moment, it feels awful. Like, you feel like you're at rock bottom, you feel like Oh, my God, I'm going to shut down. What do I do? Like, how do I solve this? Oh, God, everything is crashing, and you just have to get through that crash. There's no way to not feel that crash. There are days where you get zero sales. And then the next day, you’ll get so many that you're like I'm out of stock.

It's actually the farmer who can lead climate change, and he can be the climate warrior instead of being the victim of climate change and that's where I think the conversation should kind of head towards and realise why and how the farmer can play a huge role in building this journey towards sustainability in contributing in a quick change. When I think about it, I think sustainability can be far quicker to achieve if we have farmers on board.

And so I think when you look to come into the space, if it overwhelms you when you think, but I don't have an idea for a solution, we don't just need the solution providers, we need the solution amplifies the solution funders. And the solution enhancers, because that's how this is going to drive us to where we need to go, we're going to reach a point where there can't be any more new business models to consider, we really need to start collaborating and supporting those that exist, and that we know can drive the change. It's getting quite saturated. And so with that, we need to see who has got what going on, how it can be used even cross-sector, are there solutions in food that can be applied to the fashion sector to eliminate waste,help with chemical toxins? What can we do there? What does that look like?
