🌏 Founders, Dreamers, Doers of Medial! 🌱 This is our wake-up call. Climate change is not just knocking - it's breaking down India's door. 🔥 Look around: In 2024, we faced the longest and hottest heatwaves ever. Over 50°C in Rajasthan! More than 40,000 heatstrokes. Farmers lost crops, families lost homes, and more than 700 lives were taken by this heat alone. Nearly 3,000 lives lost, 235,000+ houses destroyed, and millions of livelihoods shaken by floods, storms, and record-breaking weather events. India lost 8% of its GDP due to climate disasters in 2022. If we ignore this, losses might hit 35% of GDP by 2100. Startups can’t succeed on a DYING planet. 🚀 But here’s the hope: Young founders are fighting back! Meet Alt Carbon - they raised $12 million, using rock dust to pull carbon from the air, revive Darjeeling's tea estates, and make farming greener.
