Sommario/riassunto

Explore how AI can be harnessed responsibly to create a sustainable future, guided by the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This book emphasizes the collective power of individual and institutional actions to foster equity, resilience, and sustainability in a digital age. Structured into five comprehensive sections, you’ll see how ethical AI is applied for equity, sustainability, and social responsibility in tackling global challenges effectively. Part 1: Agenda 2030 introduces the SDGs, providing a framework for understanding interconnected global challenges and the role of AI in accelerating progress. Part 2: Earth delves into AI applications for managing resources, monitoring ecosystems, conserving biodiversity, and addressing urban challenges like waste management and traffic systems. Part 3: Air highlights AI’s role in water conservation, species tracking, and advanced technologies for filtration and desalination. Part 4: Water examines innovations in energy generation, wildfire management, and assessing AI’s carbon footprint. Part 5: Fire focuses on air quality, meteorology, and AI applications in aviation and population management. AI for Climate Action and Sustainable Development offers actionable insights for researchers, policymakers, and technologists, inspiring readers to balance innovation with responsibility, and building a just, inclusive, and sustainable future for all. What You Will Learn Understand sustainability as a fundamental pillar of progress in the modern world. Review the ethical responsibilities that guide technological advancements. Gain insights into shaping a humane and inclusive digital future. Examine the dual impact of innovation—its opportunities and challenges.
