A 35-minute documentary by Animal Ethics featuring 16 leading experts on AI and animal advocacy from Princeton, NYU, the London School of Economics, and beyond. The film examines how AI will significantly impact the lives of animals — for better or worse — arguing that animal advocates must act proactively rather than reactively. Topics include AI's role in wildlife monitoring, factory farming, and animal sentience research.

Introduces BoreaRL, a multi-objective reinforcement learning environment for climate-adaptive boreal forest management. Boreal forests store 30-40% of terrestrial carbon, much in climate-vulnerable permafrost soils. The authors show carbon sequestration goals are easier to optimize than permafrost preservation, and that effective policies must balance species composition and density to protect permafrost while maintaining carbon gains.

This study developed a high-resolution global map using satellite data and a neural network to classify the dominant drivers of forest loss from 2001 to 2022, revealing that permanent agriculture is the leading cause worldwide, and aims to support more effective policy, conservation, and supply chain monitoring at multiple scales.
