The environmental ramifications of climate change are fast approaching irreversible proportions. In a thought-provoking conversation for the July-August edition, writer Amitav Ghosh assesses the escalating crisis and its connection to our carbon-loving, travel-embracing lifestyles. In another special spotlight feature for India's 75th Independence Day, we map 60 mindful trips across this great nation, including remote holidays in Turtuk, luxury stays in Shimla, and elusive wildlife in Ranthambore. From across the world, a special photo essay brings to life everyday Cuba and a bucket list journey navigates Sydney through its locals.
