  • Description:
    The accelerating deployment of digital technologies, much like previous revolutions in human history, holds the potential to fundamentally transform our world. Frontier technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, and artificial intelligence (AI) offer groundbreaking capabilities to address the triple planetary crises of climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution. However, it is crucial to acknowledge that the irresponsible use of these technologies could paradoxically hasten consumption, compromise environmental security, and potentially give rise to new, unforeseen crises and conflicts.
