AI and Climate Change: Modeling the Future with En-ROADS / Sustainability Lunch Series
Register with organizerWhat to look forward to
MIT Professor John Sterman will explore En-ROADS’ latest updates on how AI, data centers, energy demand, emissions, and the economy interact. Attendees will examine AI’s direct and indirect climate impacts and learn to use the simulator to guide informed conversations.
Inside the event
Questions about artificial intelligence (AI) arise in almost every climate change conversation. How much electricity will data centers need? What is the impact of AI on the climate? Will AI help or hurt efforts to cut emissions? In this Sustainability Lunch Series Session, MIT Professor John Sterman will dive deep into the latest update to the En-ROADS Climate Solutions Simulator, which lets you explore the interconnectedness of AI, energy, emissions, and the economy. Attendees will learn how and why data centers contribute to energy demand and emissions, as well as the indirect effects of scaling AI and why they may outweigh the direct footprint of data centers. You’ll leave ready to explore the AI and data center sector in En-ROADS and lead your own conversations using the simulator. Food Provided
