Yesterday at the #BBGGreenFestival, ARPA-E Director Dr. Evelyn Wang joined climate tech visionaries Page Crahan of X, the moonshot factory, John Pimentel of 280 Earth, and Michelle Ma of Bloomberg to share insights from leading their pioneering moonshot factories. These “Moonshot Managers” are at the forefront of creating disruptive technologies essential for combatting global climate challenges and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible for the future. Have a moonshot idea for the energy future? Concept papers for Vision OPEN 2024 are due NEXT WEEK! Submit your ideas before the deadline on Tuesday, July 16: https://lnkd.in/eD_XpYXx.

nextGEMS is pushing the boundaries of #EarthSystemModelling by developing #StormResolvingModels (like #IFS-FESOM and #ICON), at amazing detail — resolutions of 2-10 km. 🌐 But do you know why these models are a game-changer? 🤔 Firstly, they allow us to explicitly represent crucial climate processes like deep convection, ocean eddies, and sea ice dynamics. At the same time, this leap in resolution will enable us to: 🔹 Unravel #ClimateChange: Gain a deeper understanding of how climate will evolve globally and regionally over the next 30 years. 🌤️ 🔹#ExtremeWeather insights: Reliably predict the future of weather patterns, including extreme events. 🌪️ 🔹Earth system in focus: These models incorporate critical components like carbon cycles, aerosols, and marine nutrients for a more holistic picture. 🌀 🔹Committed to societal impact: These multi-decadal simulations will be co-designed with stakeholders like #RenewableEnergy producers and #CoastalManagement experts, ensuring practical applications. 🎣 🔹Empowering informed decisions: By providing citizens with hyper-local climate and weather forecasts, including extreme events, #nextGEMS will play a crucial role in implementing the #ParisAgreement and fostering the #GreenTransition. 👩⚖️ 🔹Digital future: These models pave the way for "Digital Twins of the Earth", a concept championed by #EU initiatives like #DestinationEarth.👨💻 Stay tuned for further developments in this revolutionary project! 💡

Many people outside Europe haven't heard of the Destination Earth digital twin project. The project seeks to improve our ability to monitor, model, and manage Europe's environmental and societal challenges stemming from climate change. Well worth a look, and you can sign up and explore the different services they're enabling, and interact with many of the data sets and models that feed the twin. Really good example of building in public and thinking through interoperability and collaboration. #digitaltwin #esg #simulation

Accelerating Progress in the World: through rapid adoption of sustainability and ESG metrics - work with us to transform your business!
We are paying attention to Climate TRACE as they upend the resistance to #scope3 emissions and use our future nemesis (eye in the sky) to help us out of our current hot water situation. Can it really get the job done? The auditors are going to say you need a lot of verification to establish chain of custody and responsibility.
Chief Impact Officer at Planet. Using space to help life on Earth. Lead an amazing team driving our sustainability, biodiversity, science, climate + forests, data + AI ethics, ESG, humanitarian + human rights portfolio.
I'm at a wonderful private session this morning at the World Economic Forum with climate champion Albert Gore, Planet co-founder Will Marshall, The Nature Conservancy's Jennifer Morris, the head of the Microsoft's AI for Good Lab Juan M. Lavista Ferres, and the co-founder of Climate TRACE and WattTime.org Gavin McCormick. Together we're exploring how to use #AI to create an era of radical #climate #transparency. In particular, we're sharing two amazing (and deeply intertwined) global projects, both of which are significantly powered by @Planet data: The first is Global Renewables Watch, a collaborative effort that Planet, Microsoft and TNC have undertaken to build a living, open-source atlas of all utility-scale solar and wind installations on Earth using artificial intelligence (AI) and satellite imagery. GReW will make this inventory available quarterly, and retroactively on a quarterly basis, back to 2017, allowing users to understand trends in renewables overtime. This kind of analysis could only be done with continuous, high-resolution feeds of satellite data, industrial scale AI and cloud computing, and the ecological science that's needed for us to understand the environmental impacts of the adoption of renewables. And that's why these particular partners - Microsoft, TNC and Planet - are all necessary partners in this effort - which will launch fully, publicly and openly soon! The second project is Climate TRACE - a coalition-driven effort, strongly supported by Vice President Gore, and masterfully co-facilitated by Gavin McCormick, to build a timely, open, and accessible inventory, powered by satellite and other data, that identifies exactly where greenhouse gas emissions are coming from. At #COP28, Gore and McCormick shared the latest Climate Trace model, which identified an astounding 352 million sources of emissions across the planet. (Check it out yourself at www.climatetrace.org). My team at Planet has led our contributions to these initiatives, and I'm excited that they are going to be working together in a deeply integrated way. They represent the vanguard of a very deep trend: the emergence of an age of radical climate transparency - the shared understanding, in increasingly real-time, of who is contributing what to the global emissions picture. That transparency is key to delivering effective, actionable policy and global accountability. We're going to have more significant announcements in this space very soon - watch this space!

Excited to be speaking on a panel at SXSW next week, come check it out if you're around on March 12! Harnessing the Power of the Ocean: All-Hands-on-Deck: Our oceans are a precious habitat for millions of species, a vital carbon sink, and a key determinant of environmental and human health. They fuel the blue economy by providing an essential food source and acting as an enabler of global trade. They are the new frontier in renewables and next-generation blue tech. But how do we bring these ideas to market, scale an equitable and just clean energy future, and create resilient coastal communities in the face of climate change? This panel will explore how public and private entities are working together to harness the full potential of our oceans.

Exploring oceans of data for climate understanding. 🌊 Unprecedented change is occurring in our oceans. Understanding the impacts of climate change and increasing human use on our oceans is critical to protecting them. We’re prototyping tools to allow researchers and decision makers to dive into oceanographic data. Available in augmented, virtual reality, and on a browser, Ocean Explorer allows users to immerse themselves in ocean variables like temperature, salinity, and sea level from their desk. As well as supporting research and discovery, the tool is a powerful way of communicating complex science to those who use and safeguard our seas.
