Working in the Business of Climate Change: Carbon Markets, Energy Transition and More, with Mahua Acharya
Back in the early 2000s, very few people in the world were working on carbon markets. Mahua Acharya, a graduate of Yale's Class of 2002, was one of them. She now works in renewable energy and electric mobility. Throughout her evolving career, she has carved out a significant place for herself in the field of sustainability. In addition to her role as CEO and Managing Director, she also lectures at the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad, the Indian School of Business in Hyderabad, and most recently at the Kautilya School of Public Policy. Listen to this episode of MAP to learn about the business of climate change, carbon markets, and insights from one of the leading figures in sustainability on how to navigate a career in this field.
This podcast is a part of Transitions Research's initiative, Monsoon Academy, that aims to build the ground force for climate and sustainability transitions in India.
