Radio Haanji Podcast

The climate crisis is no longer a distant threat; it is unfolding right before our eyes in the summer of 2026. In this powerful episode of The Climate Change Special series on Radio Haanji, host Ranjodh Singh sits down with expert guest Harminder Dhillon to dissect the harsh ecological reality gripping India and the Punjab region. From record-shattering daytime temperatures of 47°C and suffocatingly warm nights to the terrifying projection that Punjab could completely exhaust its third and final groundwater aquifer by 2039, this conversation cuts through political apathy to deliver the raw facts.
Listen as we unpack the hidden human toll of extreme heatwaves, the misclassification of heat-induced fatalities in medical records, and the sudden, unseasonal weather extremes destroying local agriculture. More importantly, this episode highlights our shared responsibility, exploring actionable community solutions ranging from the massive solar energy transition to simple adjustments in daily consumer habits. This is a crucial, eye-opening dialogue for the global Punjabi diaspora regarding the survival of our homeland and our planet.

Dive into a deeply relatable conversation about the universal struggle of procrastination. The trio gets real about waking up with high motivation only to achieve nothing by the end of the day, jokingly blaming their lack of productivity on astrological phases like Sade Sati. The energy then shifts to a passionate critique of the Punjabi film industry. The hosts call out the repetitive formulas of modern cinema and praise ambitious, risk-taking projects, wishing the local industry would strive for the storytelling heights of Christopher Nolan.
