Climate Arc, brought to you by ARC Industries, explores the people, technologies, and bold ideas reshaping how the world produces and uses energy. The goal of the podcast is to educate, spark curiosity, and clear up the myths swirling around climate change, sustainability, and renewable energy.
Each episode goes beyond the headlines to examine what is actually happening to our planet, why it matters, and what we can do about it. Through clear, honest conversations with engineers, scientists, entrepreneurs, advocates, and industry leaders, Climate Arc breaks down complex issues without the jargon overload.
From renewable-energy breakthroughs and climate innovation to the policies, businesses, and movements challenging the fossil-fuel status quo, the show turns climate urgency into understanding—and understanding into action. Because the energy transition is not only about protecting the planet. It is about protecting the people who live on it.
