A Review of AI in Climate Change Mitigation: Challenges and Opportunities

Abstract

Artificial intelligence is playing a crucial role in addressing climate change by optimizing energy consumption, monitoring environmental changes, and predicting climate patterns. This paper reviews AI applications in renewable energy management, carbon footprint reduction, and disaster prediction. We explore machine learning models used for weather forecasting, deforestation monitoring, and sustainable agriculture. Challenges such as data scarcity, computational costs, and ethical concerns are also discussed. Future research directions highlight AI's potential in policy-making and global sustainability efforts.
