On the occasion of Earth Day on April 22nd, Singapore-based, Chennai-bred Carnatic vocalist Sushma Soma spoke about how she was ignoring the environment and glossing over ways to adopt a sustainable lifestyle.

Soma – who released her second album Home with producer composer Aditya Prakash on April 8th – says in a statement, “I struggled to reconcile my love for the natural world with the apathy, complacency and convenience in my everyday choices. From using plastic bottles and plastic bags, to taking multiple long showers, to running the air conditioner all day long, I had continued to choose convenience over having to make a harder environmentally-friendly choice.”
