Climate change and artificial intelligence are two of the most consequential developments confronting humanity’s future. Yet the connections between them are only starting to be understood.

Artificial intelligence tools have the potential to enhance policy efforts to protect the environment and promote sustainability goals. In addition, climate change solutions are likely to demand increasingly complex scientific and technical analyses that could be enhanced by machine learning.

This year-long workshop series features leading experts from across the country whose scholarship explores, in different ways, how AI may help enhance solutions to climate change—as well as how AI itself could be made more sustainable and energy efficient.
