Recommendation

Part of Microsoft’s “Societal Resilience” series, “Climate Action Through Innovation” examines how data collection at the global and local levels builds community resilience to climate change. Air pollution may have declined in recent decades, but still disproportionally affects people living in relative poverty. Microsoft’s Project Eclipse coordinates with communities to monitor air quality and address how it contributes to inequity. To prevent worsening quality of life in poor countries, Microsoft’s Project Zerix aims to reduce electronic waste, which poisons people’s water and soil.

Take-Aways

  • Microsoft’s Planetary Computer gives local conservation advocates access to big data about climate change.
  • Project Eclipse works with communities to assess and address air pollution.
  • Project Zerix aims to reduce electronic waste in poor countries using sustainable practices.
