Synopsis
Climate mitigation being technology intensive, the use of AI and its applications hold immense potential in addressing this existential threat. However, to achieve this objective, AI applications need to accompany an efficient global governing system that is transparent, just, and equitable to the entire world.
Assimilating data and information from diverse sources that are critical in bridging science and policymaking to address climate mitigation has been a complex and technology-intensive task. This points to the need for putting advances in information technology to accelerate climate mitigation. For this, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a powerful tool that can revolutionise climate and net-zero strategies. Though
