Acharya Prashant explains that climate change is fundamentally a spiritual problem rooted in wrong mentality, overpopulation, and overconsumption, rather than a mere technological issue. He argues that relying on technological fixes, such as masks for livestock to absorb methane, is ineffective because it fails to address the underlying human lust for animal products like beef and dairy. He emphasizes that the ego avoids knowledge that threatens its interests, leading people to ignore the well-documented environmental destruction caused by animal agriculture. To address this, he advocates for a mass awakening of consciousness to sensitize the public and shift electoral priorities.
