Artificial Intelligence Against Climate Change Challenges: From Research to Action Towards a More Sustainable Future

Among the most disturbing situations that threaten the existence of the Earth as we know it today is climate change. The implementation of artificial intelligence in climate research provides new opportunities to address this threat. This paper explores how artificial intelligence can contribute to adaptation to or reducing the effects of climate change by identifying problems and solutions as well as risks associated with its utility. The authors analysed the prevailing literature and synthesised key generalisations, which show many approaches where artificial intelligence can be applied to generate innovative products and services aimed at addressing weather challenges, such as improving emissions tracking and developing more accurate climate forecasts. At the same time, the use of artificial intelligence to combat weather change brings to the fore a number of challenges that may turn the newly obtained answers into a whole new problem related to extreme weather conditions and artificial intelligence. The research contributes valuable information for policymakers, scientists and various stakeholders who want to combine artificial intelligence responsibly and effectively in their efforts to deal with climate-demanding situations.
