How can AI help combat climate change?

As climate change intensifies the devastation from storms, wildfires, floods and droughts, artificial intelligence (AI) and digital tools are increasingly being seen as a way to predict and limit its impact.
Governments, tech firms and investors are showing growing interest in machine-based learning systems that use algorithms to identify patterns in data sets and make predictions, recommendations or decisions in real or virtual settings.

How can AI help combat climate change?
​
The technology is already being used to send natural disaster alerts in Japan, monitor deforestation in the Amazon, and design greener smart cities in China.
 
AI applications could also help design more energy-efficient buildings, improve power storage and optimise renewable energy deployment by feeding solar and wind power into the electricity grid as needed.

On a smaller scale, it could help households minimize their energy use - automatically switching off lights not in use or sending power from electric vehicles back into the grid to meet anticipated demand.
By 2030, the tech could help cut global greenhouse gas emissions by 4%, according to a recent study by accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers.

Majesty AI works together with IBM technology to put technology to work for your business and the planet. At the same time, enhance the performance of every property for even more sustainable operations. Discover why IoT data and AI are key to greener decisions for your operations, your customers and the planet.

The essential elements of sustainable operations management are reduced labour coupled with improved products and service quality. Better uptime, as well as understanding the root cause of failure and defects is key to process optimization in every industry. Many organizations, however, have already wrung out what they can from a traditional approach to improving operations. That’s why AI-powered capabilities for asset performance management are critical for a more efficient, sustainable model. Use them for remote monitoring, predictive maintenance, as well as visual and auditory inspections. Predictive maintenance alone can improve asset availability by 20% and extend the lives of machines by years, which also reduces C02 emissions. You’ll gain a better way to monitor and manage your assets, increase efficiency and evaluate their quality, all at scale.
 
Without a doubt, being better stewards of the planet is shaping a new corporate agenda. Purpose-driven consumers are putting their money behind companies that address their environmental concerns. Employees, especially Millennials, are making employment decisions based on the corporate responsibility efforts of a company. And shareholders, too, now consider the environmental and social impact of their portfolios. It’s not surprising then that 62 percent of executives consider a sustainability strategy as essential in order to be competitive.
