🎙️ This Heat Is Not Normal: A Ground Report from India

India’s brutal heatwaves are no longer just summer discomforts — they are a public health and education emergency. In this episode, we speak with Nagraj Adve, a long-time climate communicator and member of Teachers Against the Climate Crisis (TACC), to unpack how extreme heat is disrupting classrooms and endangering children’s futures.

Nagraj has written and spoken about global warming for over 18 years. He is the author of Global Warming in India: Science, Impacts, and Politics, and his work has appeared in leading publications such as The Hindu, EPW, The Wire, and India Today. He has also shared insights on platforms like NDTV and Al Jazeera.
