Many individuals in the machine learning community express a desire to contribute to addressing climate change but are uncertain about the most impactful actions.
The workshop aims to showcase research indicating that while machine learning is not a cure-all, it can serve as a valuable tool in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and aiding society in adapting to the impacts of climate change.
This workshop is a part of the International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR), which is recognized as one of the leading conferences in the field of machine learning. The workshop will provide insights into projects that utilize, analyze, or evaluate machine learning methods in the context of climate change mitigation and adaptation, encompassing both research and practical implementation.
