Cleaning Up. Leadership in an Age of Climate Change

Leadership Circle

We are delighted to announce the Cleaning Up Leadership Circle with our founding members Actis, EcoPragma Capital, EDP Portugal Eurelectic, the Gilardini Foundation, KKR, National Grid, Octopus Energy, Quadrature Climate Foundation, SDCL and Wärtsilä.  

Committed to Climate Leadership, these organisations are taking clear action to create a more sustainable future.

Cleaning Up is a highly influential podcast and YouTube channel focused on climate leadership. Hosted by Michael Liebreich and Baroness Bryony Worthington, Cleaning Up has welcomed expert guests from across politics, academia, activism and business, including former UK prime minister Tony Blair, the architect of the Paris Agreement Christiana Figueres and former United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon.  

With a four-year track record of delivering uncompromising thought leadership, Cleaning Up has published more than 170 episodes and has been downloaded over one million times. Our audience expands across the UK, Europe, North America and Oceania, and our listeners are senior decision-makers within consulting, finance, politics, power, utilities and manufacturing. We have created an influence engine that can be used to inform real change in the world of clean energy and sustainability.  

Cleaning Up is expanding its reach through our new Leadership Circle, an invitation-only group of organisations with shared core beliefs on the Net Zero transition, who will help steer the direction of Cleaning Up. These members will support the transition of Cleaning Up from a podcast to a fully-fledged media and networking platform. As part of the Cleaning Up Leadership Circle, we aim to establish new relationships and build upon old ones. We provide the space for our members to achieve their goals, share their insights and make a difference.

Some of the benefits we aim to provide as part of this membership include: 

  • An annual podcast appearance for your CEO or a C-Suite executive on Cleaning Up.
  • Attendance at our exclusive Food for Thought networking events, with the opportunity to network with other Leadership Circle members, past podcast guests and more.
  • A seat on the Editorial Council, contributing to the development of Cleaning Up and the Leadership Circle.
  • Credit on Cleaningup.live, YouTube, podcast channels and other social media channels.
  • Promotion of company news, research or events on the podcast and social media channels.
