The future of sustainability? We asked Artificial Intelligence

We want to know more about what the future of sustainability looks like. So we interrogated an AI program to get some answers. The result? Maybe there is hope...

We wanted to consider what the future holds by asking those who will help to bring that future about: Artificial Intelligence. Because while humanity has so far shown some shortcomings when it comes to preventing environmental disasters, who knows what a future created by AI could be like? The answers delivered by an AI program certainly seem correct, precise, and to the point.

So is the future as envisioned by Artificial Intelligence better than that of mankind? It's possible! Read this interview and make up your own mind.

Let's start with a straightforward question: is it too late to remedy the climate crisis we are experiencing?

It is not too late to address the climate crisis, but time is running out. The impacts of climate change are already being felt around the world, and if we do not take action soon, these impacts will only become worse. The good news is that there are solutions available to us, and many countries, businesses, and individuals are already taking steps to reduce their carbon emissions and move towards a more sustainable future. However, it will require a concerted effort from all sectors of society to make the necessary changes in time to avoid the most severe consequences of climate change.

When we talk about sustainability, should we consider the social aspect as well as the environmental one?

Yes, it is important to consider both the environmental and social aspects of sustainability. Sustainability is a broad concept that involves finding ways to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. This includes not only protecting the natural environment, but also promoting social justice and creating sustainable communities. In order to achieve sustainability, it is necessary to address both environmental and social issues.

Corporate sustainability has already taken a central role in the positioning strategies of many brands. Is this trend set to grow in the future?

Yes, the trend towards corporate sustainability is expected to continue growing in the future. As more and more consumers, investors, and other stakeholders prioritize sustainability and environmental conservation, companies are increasingly recognizing the need to incorporate sustainability into their business practices and positioning strategies. This trend is likely to continue as the negative impacts of climate change become more apparent and the benefits of sustainability, such as reduced costs and improved brand reputation, become increasingly clear. Additionally, government regulations and other factors are likely to drive the growth of corporate sustainability in the coming years.

Can having a good reputation in terms of sustainability help a company's business?

Yes, having a good reputation in terms of sustainability can definitely help a company's business. In today's business environment, consumers, investors, and other stakeholders are increasingly taking sustainability into account when making purchasing decisions and evaluating companies. As a result, companies with a strong reputation for sustainability are often able to differentiate themselves from their competitors and gain a competitive advantage. Additionally, a good reputation for sustainability can help a company attract and retain top talent, as many people are drawn to work for companies that prioritize sustainability. Finally, operating in a sustainable manner can also lead to cost savings and other operational benefits, which can help improve a company's bottom line.

Which ‘green’ jobs are most wanted by companies?

It's difficult to say which green jobs are most in demand by companies, as the demand for specific jobs can vary depending on a number of factors, including the location of the company and the current state of the job market. However, some green jobs that are commonly in high demand include renewable energy technicians, energy efficiency experts, sustainability consultants, and environmental scientists. These jobs are typically in high demand because they allow companies to reduce their carbon footprint, operate in a more sustainable manner and communicate their environmental commitment. 

What’s most valuable about working in the sustainability sector? 

Working in the sustainability sector can mean both contributing to finding solutions for a greener planet and investing professionally in a sector with promising growth prospects. The sustainability sector is focused on finding ways to reduce humanity's impact on the environment and promote social and economic development in a way that is sustainable for the long term. This can include a wide range of activities, from renewable energy and sustainable agriculture to sustainable finance and eco-friendly consumer products. As concern about the environment and social justice grows, the demand for sustainable products and services is likely to increase, creating opportunities for professionals in this field.

This is what Artificial Intelligence has answered us, while you think about whether these answers are reassuring or disturbing, you can also think about making a concrete gesture and plant a tree with Treedom!
