The Climate Layer

The science is clear. The solutions are real. The noise is the problem.

Hosted by Alex Banat, Harvard researcher and clean energy strategist.

Meet the Host

Alex Banat has spent nearly a decade at the intersection of clean energy, climate technology, and public understanding. From building EV infrastructure programs at Energy New England to advising major energy clients at Edelman and supporting Breakthrough Energy portfolio companies at V2 Communications, he has worked across the full spectrum of the clean energy transition.

He is currently completing his Master's in Sustainability at Harvard, where his research focuses on how climate misinformation spreads on social media and delays clean energy policy.

The Climate Layer is where that expertise meets the public.
