Sustainability is the future for every field, we have exploited many of our resources, causing climate change. Yes see your surroundings, climate change is real. Food industry being one of the major industries, it is essential to adopt sustainable practices. We are a vast majority, even a small change can bring a huge impact in the world. Think..

Such a low reach...2.6k views...youth of india should be made aware of these issues...beginning from the schools there should be projects assisting farmers on the fields.

Farmers income halved. Cost of agricultural inputs doubled.

[@RameshShinde-fx8mt]

Right

[@YenDinh-mt8mo]

6:20 losing land in India
7:55 farmer income

[@raghvendratiwari89]

Your speech and knowledge is outstanding but I am not convinced with your data of one state releasing carbon equal to carbon released by whole cars in India.
Can you please tell source of this data.

[@samsheehan5298]

The stubble burning causes immense pollution every year around the autumn time. Cars produce nowhere near as much carbon as a burning plant matter

[@priyamkumar4572]
