Beyond Forecasting: Artificial Intelligence Is a Powerful Decarbonization Tool

For the first time, artificial-intelligence experts have created a place to collaborate, Climate Change AI. Some are mining the massive data of remotely-sensed emissions streams. Some are accelerating materials discovery for solar fuels by combining machine learning and physics to figure out a proposed material's crystal structure. Some are using system optimization to consolidate freight and route it more efficiently. Others are deploying agricultural robots armed with spectral cameras in hope of reducing fertilizer use in farming.
