Meet the innovators under 35 shaping climate tech
MIT Technology Review highlights 35 young innovators working on climate tech, with a strong emphasis on the integration of AI to solve energy and environmental challenges. These researchers are developing tools for energy-efficient AI, pollution tracking, and urban climate modeling.
Why it matters
The intersection of AI and climate science is becoming a critical frontier for developing scalable solutions to global environmental crises.
These young minds are advancing research and industry across energy, agriculture, and critical materials.
Each year, the editorial team at MIT Technology Review puts together a list of 35 innovators under 35—a group of researchers, inventors, and other young minds worth following.
The team worked on the newest edition of the list for months, and the final slate includes nine individuals from all over the world in the climate and energy category. Each one has a fascinating story and is tackling an important challenge.
I think it’s worth zooming out and considering the energy and climate awardees as a group. Taken together, these innovators and their work can tell us something about where climate tech is at this moment—and where it’s heading.
