Quotes
Zeenat Aman
A legendary actor and the narrator of the documentary series 'Embers of Hope: The Fight for Our Future'
“My fear is the same as every parent out there-that we have created an uninhabitable atmosphere for the next generation. One that is not so slow but is surely poisoning them. It's quite mind-boggling that we as a nation aren't addressing air pollution more seriously. And the conversation isn't restricted to Delhi at all; most of the world's most polluted cities are in India! What a tragic badge to wear. I suppose it will take a combination of public pressure and political urgency if we are to turn the tide.”

“I don't think we lack awareness or understanding about the scale of this crisis anymore. Inversely, I think the public is more aware than ever before, but knowing just how bad it is has paralyzed people. Tackling the climate crisis seems insurmountable to the average person, which is why showcasing stories of resilience and the power of community is crucial.”
