Dear GEP-ed Friends: Foreign Policy has published an important piece connecting the pollution crisis in Delhi to India's ambitions as a global power; I had a few things to say about that. https://foreignpolicy.com/2025/12/09/india-pollution-environment-air-power-threat/ (PDF attached in case you run into a firewall).
On a related topic, Ashok Swain and I co-authored a piece on the link between India's climate diplomacy and the need for domestic climate action and climate justice in India. This was published through 360Info and republished by The Diplomat. https://thediplomat.com/2025/12/indias-climate-diplomacy-must-account-for-domestic-inequalities/ My best wishes, Prakash **The brevity of emails is meant to reduce the burden of excessive laptop use** --------------------------------------------------------------------- Prakash Kashwan, Ph.D. (Google Scholar <https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=SRC3hyMAAAAJ&hl>) Associate Professor of Environmental Studies Brandeis University, Waltham, MA *Editor,* Environmental Politics <https://www.tandfonline.com/journals/fenp20/about-this-journal#aims-and-scope> *Book:* Decolonizing Environmentalism <https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/decolonizing-environmentalism-9781350335493/> : Alternative Visions and Practices of Environmental Action. 2025.
