Can AI tackle climate change?
Climate change hasn’t been hitting the headlines quite as much in recent months – but that’s not because the situation has improved. ETH Zurich researchers Lynn Kaack and David Dao spoke to the ETH Podcast back in March about how we can use AI to help in the fight against climate change.
This episode of the ETH podcast is about Lynn Kaack’s and David Dao’s work on the energy transition and forests, their work with the organisation Climate Change AI, and their take on research, activism and policy.
We pushed back the podcast that had been produced before the lockdown due to our special series on COVID-19 and it has now been supplemented with current statements from the two researchers. Because we wanted to know what had changed for them.
