The climate crisis is not just a scientific problem—it’s a technological, economic, and social challenge. AI is emerging as a powerful tool to tackle it, driving renewable energy optimization, biodiversity protection, and climate risk modelling. However, technology alone won’t solve this crisis—we need diverse perspectives, and women in AI and climate-tech must play a key role in shaping sustainable solutions.

As an active member of the Climate Reality Project, Women in Climate, and a mentor in GDG Academy London, I have engaged with students, industry leaders, and climate advocates to understand the real challenges and opportunities at the intersection of AI and sustainability. This talk will combine personal experience and technical insights to explore:

1. AI in Climate-Tech: How Google Cloud AI and Earth Engine are being used for real-world climate solutions.
2. Bridging the AI-Sustainability Skills Gap: Insights from mentoring students and early-career professionals on breaking into AI-powered sustainability.
3. Industry Perspectives: Lessons learned from Earthfest and Innovation Zero London, where I engaged with top climate-tech innovators.
4. Leadership & Advocacy: Key takeaways from my experience as a climate activist trained by Al Gore, including insights from the Climate Reality Project's annual gathering.
5. Women in Climate-Tech: Why diverse leadership is critical for innovation, and how women can drive AI-driven sustainability at scale.

Key Takeaways for Attendees:
1. A practical understanding of AI’s role in climate-tech and how it is transforming renewable energy, biodiversity, and climate risk assessment.
2. Actionable insights on how to leverage AI tools like Google Cloud AI and Earth Engine for sustainability projects.
3. Guidance on career pathways into AI-driven sustainability, based on mentorship and real-world industry trends.
4. A deeper understanding of leadership and advocacy in climate-tech, and how women can take charge in this space.
