This book examines the applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in optimising environmental management, mitigating carbon footprints, and accelerating the transition to a sustainable low-carbon economy.
Progressing from discussion of fundamental concepts to specific applications of AI in various sectors, this book highlights how AI can assist companies and sectors in achieving Internationally Transferable Mitigation Outcomes (ITMO) and complying with ESG criteria. Sectors and applications discussed include e-commerce, finance, urban planning and conservation, among others. The book also addresses the ethical considerations and challenges of deploying AI technology and the need for robust regulatory frameworks.
Cutting across the disciplines of technology, engineering, and social sciences, this book will interest a broad range of researchers including those focused on sustainable development, ESG and net zero transition.
