The goal is to reduce global warming, address climate
13 related hazards in all countries, take up policies
nationally and build knowledge and capacities to meet CLIMATE ACTION
climate change. AI for climate action has the potential
to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions by up to 4 percent. Using
AI and data from NASA, researchers are able to identify patterns and
monitor changes of land surfaces such as decreasing sea area, ice
cap surfaces, etc. This would help in determining future risks. AI can
also be used to monitor pollution.
We all know that healthy oceans support climate
14 change mitigation and adaptation efforts. SDG targets LIFE
to prevent and reduce marine pollution, protect marine BELOW WATER
and coastal ecosystems, regulate harvesting and end
destructive fishing practices, etc.
Our oceans are vast and cover more than 70% of the earth’s surface.
This makes tracking and measuring life under water a massive task.
Satellite imagery and analysis of boat’s movements with a specially designed form of machine
learning makes it possible to determine the area of illegal fishing or seafaring vessels.
This SDG aims at protecting, restoring and promoting
15 the sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, managing LIFE ON LAND
forests, fighting deforestation, reversing land
degradation and stopping biodiversity loss.
In future, AI methods may be used to create a digital dashboard
for the planet, to help us monitor, model, foresee and manage
environmental systems at a global scale.
This SDG aims to guarantee justice and freedom for all PEACE, JUSTICE
16 people by 2030. The target is to significantly reduce all AND STRONG
forms of violence with communities and governments INSTITUTIONS
to end conflict and insecurity.
