Can we fight the climate crisis with technology? In 2023, the tech world started to redefine innovation with a crucial focus on sustainability. No longer just a buzzword, sustainability is now an urgent necessity for our planet's well-being. The European Union is leading the charge, envisioning a "twin transition" that marries the digital revolution with a green transformation, as stated in the European Green Deal. But it's not just about balancing the scales – it's about embedding sustainability directly into the digital transformation process itself. Digital technologies currently account for 8 to 10 percent of the EU's energy consumption and emit 2 to 4 percent of greenhouse emissions. It's a significant impact that can either be the greatest opportunity for sustainability or the biggest risk, as highlighted by David Jensen from the UN Environment Programme. Read more about it here: https://lnkd.in/eV5EJ5R3 In 2024, as the impact of the climate crisis becomes undeniable, the question isn't whether tech should embrace sustainability – it's how fast and how boldly.

Yesterday, I had the privilege of attending the GREENTECH FESTIVAL event in London, and it left me with some powerful insights, as well as connecting with lots of lovely people with a shared passion for creating change. Some key takeaways on how we'd like to position So-Motive 🔗 Connected Efforts Are Crucial Forward motion on climate change demands that all parts of society work in unison. Progress isn’t achieved in isolation – we must move together. 💰 Directing Funds Where They Matter There’s hope that we can redirect money away from poor land management and fossil fuels, instead towards clean energy in developing nations to create a lasting impact. I loved learning how battery power upgrades are now coming from multiple sources of energy. 💡 Fear Won’t Drive Change, Purpose Will Scaring people into action won’t work. Instead, we need to inspire with purpose and hope. Positive change must feel both attainable and meaningful. 🌍 Opportunity for Everyone The opportunity to make a difference shouldn’t be reserved for the few. We need to ensure everyone can contribute to a sustainable future. ⚖️ How We Do Things Matters as Much as What We Do Purpose and integrity should be central to everything 💼 Profit Must Serve Purpose Profit for its own sake isn’t enough anymore. Profit should serve a greater purpose, helping to drive meaningful and positive change. We took away that we're here to help educate, engage, and empower your people to understand and act on their ESG commitments, creating stories that shine a light on your impact.. as well as learning as we go!! #Greentech #ESG #Sustainability #ClimateAction #PurposeDriven #SoMotive #CleanEnergy #PositiveChange #ESGStorytelling

I'll be honest. Being a creative working at Accenture can be tough a lot of days. But then there are days where it's great. Like when the Accenture Sustainability Innovation Challenge is happening. It's an accelerator program where everyone globally is invited to submit ideas that'll help the world. People like me and my Sustainability Studio cohort get to be judges and mentors. And the top ideas get a chance at being real. ReefCloud is one of the ideas that have won and become real. In partnership with the Australian Government, ReefCloud is now helping scientists in more than 35 countries get data about how reefs are doing 700 times faster than was possible before. (And winning best-in-class design awards and Fast Company World Changing Ideas honorable mentions along the way. https://lnkd.in/eg6_4-eb) ReefCloud uses AI to basically outpace climate change. Reefs have been dying faster than we can track. Before, by the time we could see the problems, it was too late. Now, for the first time, we can get ahead of the damage and have a shot at saving some life. Who cares about reefs? Well, besides the fact that if we lose them Earth is ecological toast, more than a billion people live near coastlines where coral reefs are protection against flooding - they're our mega marine buffer. It's very bad news for humans if we lose them. "ReefCloud represents the biggest breakthrough we've had to date" - Dr Manuel Gonzalez Rivero, Senior Research Scientist This year's Sustainability Innovation Challenge began yesterday.
