There are traffic jams on India's hill stations and mountain roads across the year. It wasn't always like this.
Increased incomes of the Indian middle class after the 1991 economic reforms translated to improved mobility. Many made their way to the mountains. And the most significant impact of India's increased mobility has been on the environment of the mountains.
Through Environomy, S. Gopikrishna Warrier will take you through the journey of how environmental economics got interlocked after the economic reforms of 1991. This is a journey for which he had a ringside ticket as a journalist, reporting and writing on the environment for the past three decades.
Writer and producer: S. Gopikrishna Warrier Production Editor: Kartik Chandramouli Audio editor: Tejas Dayanand Sagar
