While global climate movements highlight the urgency of the crisis, many are left wondering how to take meaningful, personal action.

Climatize is changing that.

With as little as $10, you can get started today investing in clean energy and get up to a 10% return on an investment that benefits more than your retirement account! (and we’ve got a special code to get you even more benefit - see below)

Renewable energy projects often face significant funding barriers—particularly at the community level, where traditional financial systems fall short. And as an individual, you’re usually required to be an accredited investor to even be considered as an investor in the funds that do help get these assets built.

As an SEC-registered impact investing platform, Climatize allows anyone over 18 to invest directly into renewable energy projects. And with millions of dollars already invested with dozens of solar developers on the platform, Climatize is bridging the gap in clean energy financing in a unique and valuable way.

Will Wiseman, co-founder and CEO of Climatize, made the Forbes 30 Under 30 list for social impact and is regularly cited in mainstream journals for his advocacy and innovation in the sector. With over a decade of experience in solar installation, project management, and financial structuring, Will has also directly contributed to building more than a dozen solar farms. His technical and financial expertise fuels the Climatize mission to make clean energy investments accessible, fill critical funding gaps, and turn everyday individuals into active participants in the energy transition.

Beyond the accolades, I was genuinely impressed with how this young entrepreneur and his co-founder are building their business, quickly, and globally. You’ll be rewarded by sticking through to the end to hear some of his recommendations for building culture that is growth-focused while staying fun and rewarding. It’s inspiring to see how the next generation of clean energy leaders are stepping up to solve real-world problems with a tech and media-savvy approach.
