This course will help you understand AI's climate implications and identify practical next steps within your organization. The course begins with demystifying the connection between AI, Large Language Models (LLMs), data centers, and energy and water demand. Then you will learn about AI's environmental footprint, the related environmental and community impacts, you will evaluate real-world applications of AI across climate adaptation, energy transition, and nature conservation, and understand the business and policy landscape shaping corporate decisions.
