Steve Hargreaves is co-director of the Energy Transition team at Climate Nexus, a pro-bono communications firm focused on climate and clean energy issues. The energy team demonstrates the feasibility of shifting from fossil fuels to renewable energy through data, storytelling and building partnerships.

He covered stories including concerns over peak oil and record oil prices, the boom in U.S. shale production, and the BP oil spill. In 2011 he won a Society of American Business Editors and Writers award for a series on the military’s efforts to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels. He also spearheaded the site’s coverage of urban innovation, including revitalization efforts in Detroit and a multi-month project on innovative cities.
