Sustainability Podcast

By Ananda Khanal

Sustainability is in urgency mode. Though we tried many approaches to restore sustainability, the results are not promising. The results are not encouraging because of underlying complacencies and declining integrity. This topic will not progress until people are visionary and have integrity. And only spirituality can bring awareness to rebuild people's integrity and make them proactive. As such, there is no sustainability without spirituality. This podcast covers topics of sustainability and spirituality.
