Author Info
Dr. Sanjay Wahal, PhD is a systems thinker, sustainability strategist, and interdisciplinary author whose work bridges science, culture, leadership, and embodied intelligence.
With over three decades of experience spanning advanced materials, nonwovens, biobased technologies, and industrial decarbonization, Dr. Wahal has advised global corporations, startups, investors, and policymakers on innovation that aligns technology with human and planetary limits. He is the Founder & President of Decarbonization, LLC, an advisory firm dedicated to climate-aligned systems transformation, and the author of The eCarbon Card Blueprint: Digital Solutions for Carbon Accountability — India as a Model (Armin Lear, 2025), A Quantum Walk Through Sustainability: Nonlinear Thinking for a Nonlinear World (The Press at Cal Poly Humboldt, 2026) and Climate Orgasm: The Planetary Sustainability Sutra (Armin Lear, 2026 & Motilal Banarsidass Publications, 2026).
Beyond his technical and strategic work, Dr. Wahal explores how ancient wisdom and modern science converge in everyday human practices—eating, walking, working. and leading. His writing weaves together neuroscience, behavioral economics, yoga philosophy, complexity science, quantum mindsets, and lived cultural experience to uncover overlooked leverage points for both personal and systemic change.
Mudra On the Plate — The Yoga of Eating With Your Hands reflects this integrative approach. It is not a rejection of modern nutrition or hygiene, but an invitation to restore sensory intelligence, presence, and reverence to one of the most fundamental human acts.
Dr. Wahal is also the author of multiple forthcoming books on nonlinear leadership, sustainability, and embodied living. He speaks internationally on systems thinking, decarbonization, and conscious innovation, and believes that the most profound transformations often begin with the smallest gestures—sometimes as simple as how we touch our food.
Dr. Wahal earned his undergraduate degree from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, an MBA from Vanderbilt University, USA and both his master's and doctoral degrees in Chemical Engineering from the University of Rhode Island, USA, followed by postdoctoral fellowship at MIT, USA. He can reached via his websites: www.decarbonizationllc.com and www.sanjaywahal.com.
