Introduction
Over the last few decades, information technology has taken a prominent place in our lives. It has enabled the development of many digital tools that can help us on a daily basis: the fight against climate change and biodiversity protection is no exception.
The program
Develop your projects, create your business...
The GENEVA FORUM invites you to propose your solutions in this field.
It is estimated that about 2% of humanity’s CO2 emissions are due to information technologies, paving the way for Green IT. Indeed, it allows the digital activities of human beings to be adapted to the conservation of nature.
IT has also made it possible to develop tools to monitor nature’s health and the impact of human economic activities on it. Here are some of the initiatives that already exist:
- Satellites that allow data to be collected from the sky on large-scale forests, sea pollution ;
- The interpretation of acoustic footprints that make it possible to detect changes over long periods of time;
- Etc.
These technologies are of many interests: they make it possible to monitor coastlines, analyse changes caused by climate change on various types of ecosystems, map forests and monitor their health, etc.
The challenge today remains make this type of technology more accessible and to develop new ones, so that we can have a more precise understanding of our environment and be able to live in harmony with it.
