Irony died a million deaths, after jumping into the Arabian Sea, at seeing the Vantara-esque display. After all, isn't RIL the largest producer of polymers (plastic for dummies) in the country? If plastic is not made, it will not be a threat. Simple --no? news18.com/lifestyle/anan…

Very interesting session on the history of environmentalism in India, coinciding with a book release of Ramachandra Guha's Speaking with Nature. Followed up by a very interesting and engaging conversation with Harini Nagendra Suffice to say we need many more such books on nature

So many young swimming aspirants at a national #swimming meet in #India & yet, we are unable to take podiums at even a single major international meet, let alone 'qualify' for Olympics. This needs serious consideration and major changes @swimmingfederationofindia DG, SAI Ashwini Vaishnaw

Don't know, but I felt the urge to watch #tamas serial by #govindnihalini today. And the very opening screen -- those who forget history find themselves condemned to repeat it. That's all I wish to say on #Aurangzeb and #NagpurViolence youtube.com/watch?v=3hee6E…

It is April time, when appraisals are round the corner -- and there is no better way to get a decent hike, than buttering up the big boss or his younger son. So what if he is just walking, let's paint it as a quest, a deeply spiritual & devotional one. moneycontrol.com/news/india/a-j…

I hugely enjoyed my recent conversation with the brilliant Harini Nagendra at the Azim Premji University . We spoke about the challenges and joys of environmental research, and the abiding influence on both of us of the great ecologist Madhav Gadgil. Do listen: youtube.com/watch?v=LhjfkA…

Am I the only one who finds it odd that when the terrorist attacked at Pahalgam, nobody knew, including our celebrated intelligence. And now, when we are supposedly preparing to payback, we are publishing stories in the media, even of our army drills. .indiatoday.in/india/story/pu…
