@rikard Have you seen many successful initiatives to encourage structural change? Would be interesting to track the approaches that work best

Hi @Eddy-Chiang I know you are in the early stages of this, but I would love to learn more about how you anticipate the return on investment from an investor's perspective.

Are you selling the stored energy to a retailer at a premium? How many batteries are you collecting at the moment and what are the up-front/ongoing costs of the project?

Thanks for sharing. I think ideas like this have a lot of promise. The economics are the make or break point

Farmers are using food waste to make electricity

Cool concept! I was surprised to learn that up to 10 percent of all human-made greenhouse gas emissions are linked to food waste

Around 33% of the food produced on the planet currently is not consumed. When all this food rots in a landfill, it emits methane, a powerful greenhouse gas that contributes to climate change.

Decreasing food wastage has high climate change mitigation and adaptation potential. What can you do to encourage less food waste in your own life & more broadly?

@l42 Awesome thanks! I'm curious about these kinds of meetups. Have you since gone to any others? Wonder if they could collaborate together maybe using a platform like this?

@CODEX how has the journey been since launch? Any learnings to share?

@Hannah-Smith The key word here is definitely balance.

Treating the symptoms vs the root cause is important, as we're seeing currently. Hopefully over time, as we address the causes through decarbonization, our society can shift more towards providing resources for adaptation

Connecting with like-minded individuals is surprisingly hard outside of a community like this

@l42 seeing as how it was in SF, was the community mostly made up of tech people? Anyone else?

@mattm Kudos, sounds like you're doing everything you can in your day to day.

Would be interesting to see if there's a way to put positive organizational pressure on the larger scale decisions of the company towards an environmental direction

@duke Is it something you'd like to develop into reality? What progress has been made so far? What would you say are the main obstacles initially?

@NicolasF Interesting. The key word that it always comes back to for me with AI is "prediction". If there is a task that can be described as prediction, it is likely that it can be learned by a model. Lots of tasks under the domain of climate solutions require predictive capabilities, including your own which you highlighted in the other thread
