Acharya Prashant explores the deeper cause behind environmental destruction, excessive consumption and the idea of development through the lens of the Ishavasya Upanishad. He questions whether carbon capture, green technology and better policies can be sufficient when the same ego that creates pollution and consumes excessively is still driving human action. The discussion moves from climate change and consumption to politics, education, science and self-knowledge, asking whether the real crisis is outside us or within the human being. *Key Themes:* The ego behind consumption and environmental destruction Climate crisis, technology and the limits of external solutions Self-knowledge and the missing education of the self Development, happiness and the psychology of consumption ➖➖➖➖➖➖ 🎧 Listen to #AcharyaPrashant on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3f0KFweIdHB0vfcoizFcET?si=c8f9a6ba31964a06 Music Credits: Milind Date ~
