AI, climate, and local leadership workshop
Urban Climate Leadership’s What We Heard reports capture insights from dialogues that bring together local governments, researchers, and community partners to advance equitable climate action.
This summary from the AI, Climate, and Local Leadership in Canada workshop at Vancouver Climate Day 2025 highlights how cities are navigating the opportunities and risks of artificial intelligence in climate planning, calling for transparency, data governance, education, and collaboration to ensure technology strengthens, not widens, equity in local climate action.
Thank you to our hosts, SFU Climate Innovation, in partnership with SFU’s Morris J. Wosk Centre for Dialogue and the Pacific Institute for Climate Solutions, for convening this important gathering.
