The Climate Layer makes sustainability simple and misinformation extinct. Hosted by Alex Banat, Harvard researcher and clean energy veteran, this show peels back the myths surrounding climate change, from energy and EVs to food, policy, and biodiversity. Each episode exposes the narratives holding us back, replaces them with scientific fact, and finds the human stories that make truth worth sharing. If there's a lie circulating about it, this show is coming for it.

For decades, the biggest barrier to climate action hasn't been a lack of solutions - it's been misinformation. From organized doubt campaigns in the 1980s to viral myths about EVs and renewable energy today, deliberate n
