Environmental intelligence :An enabling platform to help solve complex environmental challenges

Environmental intelligence (EI) provides the scientific and technological innovations needed to better manage and respond to climate change, resource depletion, pollution, risks to human and animal health, and biodiversity loss. The complexity of these challenges demands more than traditional scientific methods: it requires dynamic models capable of predicting and tracking environmental changes in real time, integrating diverse data sources, and fostering a systemic understanding of socio-environmental processes and interactions. Leveraging advanced sensor technologies, robots, artificial intelligence and interdisciplinary research, environmental intelligence aims to improve policy making, optimise resource management and provide the information needed to promote sustainable behaviours.
