Shreya Ghodawat Wins ‘Podcaster of the Year’ Award At IWAA 2024 For Vegan Podcast

Shreya Ghodawat won the “Podcaster of the Year” award at the Indian Women Achievers Awards (IWAA) 2024 for her vegan podcast, Sustainable Tea with Shreya. The podcast, which has over 20 thousand subscribers on YouTube and over 11 million views, features bold discussions on sustainability and related topics. Ghodawat expressed her gratitude for the recognition, stating that the award validates her passion for advocating sustainability.

Despite her success, Ghodawat faced challenges at COP29 when vegan-labeled menu items contained animal products, highlighting the disconnect between labeling and actual content. She criticized the emphasis on meat at the event, especially given the significant impact of animal agriculture on the climate crisis. Ghodawat's podcast continues to be a platform for advocating for sustainability and challenging misconceptions about veganism.
