From improving energy efficiency and monitoring ecosystems to helping predict environmental risks, I discuss the potential of AI to enhance climate action — while also reflecting on the challenges and limitations that come with relying on this evolving technology.

This episode explores whether conservation should focus on protecting entire ecosystems rather than individual species, weighing the benefits and challenges of both approaches.

This episode explores why diversity is essential to advancing sustainability and effectively tackling the climate crisis. From blending traditional knowledge with modern technology, to addressing social equity in sustainability efforts, I discuss how diverse perspectives help create innovative, adaptable solutions for our planet’s most pressing challenges.
