Louisa Nakanuku-Diggs
Hi all,
The Bezos Earth Fund has launched the $100 million AI for Climate and Nature Grand Challenge. As the fiscal partner to the Grand Challenge, Radiant Earth is proud to support this critical initiative. The Grand Challenge is exploring new ideas for multiplying the impact of climate and nature efforts using modern AI. The first round of awards will focus on sustainable proteins, power grid optimization, and biodiversity conservation, in addition to embracing visionary wildcard solutions for climate and nature.
Submit a proposal describing your idea for how you might protect our planet and our future using AI. Up to 30 applicants will be selected as Seed Grantees and receive funding and mentorship from experts at the forefront of climate, nature, and AI. Phase 1 submissions are due by 5:59 p.m. Eastern Time (9:59 p.m. UTC) on Tuesday, July 23.
Potential applicants can learn more at the June 20 virtual information session. The team will present an overview of the Grand Challenge and answer questions submitted in advance. A video recording and summary of questions and answers will be published following the session.
