VENTIENT ENERGY’S CLIMATE OF CHANGE
Tune in to the podcastTHE MEANING OF
CLIMATE OF CHANGE
Climate of Change has a simple yet powerful purpose: to experience, understand, and educate, in support of a sustainable future.
This purpose first took us to Antarctica with 2041 Foundation to experience climate change on the planet’s last great wilderness, and learn how the health of the region is connected to the generation of renewable energy. Our team of three witnessed the devastating impact of greenhouse gas emissions and met international activists who took our learning beyond the continent.
We discovered the disproportionate effect of rapid global warming on gender inequality, minorities, and traditional ways of life around the world. And in response, we shared our learnings through articles, videos, interviews, and social media.
We understand, now more than ever, that continual education is key to having a positive, lasting impact on people and the planet. And we know that the impact we make has to extend beyond the environment and into diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), if we are to leverage the power of each person to effect positive change.
It is this spirit of education, inclusivity, and awareness that has driven the evolution of the Climate of Change campaign into the Climate of Change Podcast.
Hosted by diverse members of our team, expect open and insightful conversations on renewable energy and DEI, shared for the changing times we live in. We’ll tackle trending topics as well as under-the-radar issues, all with the aim of educating ourselves and others, providing perspectives, inviting dialogue, and creating a more sustainable world.
