CAN AI EVER BE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY?


Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the most transformative technologies of our time. However, ensuring its ethical application is crucial, particularly when addressing our planet's most pressing environmental challenges. Stratzy Consulting Founder, Lisa Zengeni has been invited by Friends of the Earth Europe to speak at an event focused on the ethics of AI and how we can leverage AI in innovative ways to address these challenges.


Friends of the Earth is the world’s largest grassroots environmental federation, with more than 70 national member groups and millions of passionate supporters globally. Their work centres on creating systemic change for a fairer and more sustainable world—a mission that resonates deeply with the mission and ethos behind Stratzy Consulting.


At this event, Lisa will be diving into the opportunities AI presents for tackling environmental challenges in ways that prioritise both innovation and ethics. In recent years, we have seen promising applications of AI in areas such as climate modelling, biodiversity monitoring, and the optimisation of renewable energy systems. These are examples of AI being used not just to improve efficiency or predict outcomes, but to help us genuinely rethink how we live in harmony with our planet. 🌱


However, with great power comes great responsibility. The ethics of AI remains a crucial conversation. While AI holds immense potential for environmental innovation, it must be guided by principles of transparency, inclusivity, and justice. How do we ensure that AI solutions do not inadvertently cause harm or exacerbate existing inequalities? How can we guarantee that the benefits of these technologies are shared equitably? These are some of the questions we are excited to explore with a diverse group of participants.
