In an era where sustainability is paramount, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is emerging as a powerful ally in our quest to protect the planet. #Sustainability #AI #TechforGood #ClimateChange

AI is accelerating sustainability progress around the world.      AI is enhancing Amazon conservation efforts using bioacoustics, helping to feed the planet’s growing population by supporting farmers, identifying the 25-30% of drinking water that is lost every year from leaks, and much more.      We are also ensuring to establish guardrails that steer the world safely, securely, and equitably toward net-zero emissions, climate resilience, and a nature-positive future      Learn more in our Accelerating Sustainability with AI playbook: https://lnkd.in/gDm2Z-CG 

Worth reading: AI and Sustainability Playbook and also we have issued 2024 Environmental Sustainability report with data insights and relevant structure: Microsoft sustainability, Customer sustainability and global. The global technology, energy, and policy landscape is ripe to be primed to unlock AI’s transformative potential for sustainability. This white paper introduces our five-point playbook for creating the needed enabling conditions. Invest in AI to accelerate sustainability solutions Develop digital and data infrastructure for the inclusive use of AI for sustainability Minimize resource use in AI operations Advance AI policy principles and governance for sustainability Build workforce capacity to use AI for sustainability

Fantastic to see some of Europe's leading companies making good headway on cutting carbon emissions. With more aggressive sustainability targets coming in for all companies operating in Europe, the EU Green deal is focussed on Europe being the first climate-neutral continent by 2050! We can all play our part in driving behavioural change in our lives both at work and at home, no matter how small it all contributes. Here at Viadex Global, Petra T. is leading our sustainability charge, from building more sustainable supply chains for our globally dispersed customers (in-country vs global deliveries) through to our #Viadexone platform giving companies a complete view at the touch of a button of their entire global end user estate power consumption and how to reduce it using #AI and automation. #climatechange #esg

As companies accelerate AI adoption, the impact on sustainability, especially carbon emissions, is a critical concern. The International Energy Agency (IEA) reports that data centers currently consume about 1 to 1.5 percent of global energy. With AI usage surging around the world, this number is set to rise dramatically.   So, where will all that energy come from? And what are the implications for carbon emissions? Can renewable energy sources meet the demand, and if so, how?   Join us on June 27 at 12 pm ET for the next session in 4A's Conscious Conversations: A Sustainability Webinar Series to hear about the current state of play, and the future of AI and sustainability. Speakers: 💡 Julien Le Bas – SVP, Executive Creative Director & Global Head of Sustainability, Jack Morton Worldwide 💡 Alison Pepper – EVP, Government Relations and Sustainability, 4A's 💡 Kathryn Lundstrom – Sustainability Editor, ADWEEK – Moderator Register here: https://bit.ly/3VQZmbn #ConsciousConsumption #Sustainability #AdvertisingEthics #Greenwashing #ClimateAction #4As #Adweek #JackMorton #ExperienceBetter #AI #CarbonEmissions

To achieve Net Zero, there is an urgent need to step up investments into clean energy, infrastructure, workforce, and systems of the future. In all this, technology has a huge role to play in helping us optimise processes and systems. For example, machine learning and AI are already playing a significant role in the way we design, construct, operate and maintain infrastructure. Data collected is used to process performance and make substantial contributions to climate-resilient, low-emissions development.    We explored this topic in detail in a panel discussion today, featuring Shargiil Bashir, our Chief Sustainability Officer, with Sherif Tawfik, Chief Sustainability Commercial Officer, Microsoft; Eslam Mahdy, Managing Consultant, Guidehouse; Naomi English, MD & Global Head of Climate Strategy, MSCI Inc.; and Line Eriksen, Associate Partner, Bain & Company. #FAB #Sustainability #PathwaytoCOP28 #COP28UAE #UniteActDeliver

#AI is significantly impacting global sustainability efforts by enhancing #conservation through #bioacoustics, supporting agriculture, improving water management, and more. It's crucial in measuring, predicting, and optimizing complex systems for #sustainability.

This will be good. If you can make it, come check out our Global Head of Sustainability Julien Le Bas in what looks to be a great discussion on the future of AI and Sustainability. #AI #Sustainability

How Will The GenAI Revolution be Powered? Our Global Head of Sustainability Research and U.S. Utilities Analyst discuss the rapidly growing power needs of the GenAI enablers and how to meet them.

As we mark Earth Day 2024, it’s time to reflect on our progress and the road ahead. This article explores how global cooperation and technology like AI can lead us towards a sustainable future. Let’s make sustainability a reality, not just a goal. Check out the article here: https://lnkd.in/dvK4Xwyh #EarthDay #EnvironmentalSustainability
