Today's question: Several months after its AI launch announcement, how is ClimateGPT doing?
 
As a new and open source climate & green politics project, ClimateGPT is moving into the GreenPolicy360 arena and we have now turned an eye on the flight path of ClimateGPT's launch.
 
Let's take a quick look.
 
 
SJS/GreenPolicy360 Siterunner: As most everyone in the Internet-connected world knows by now, an immense amount of attention (and deep-pocket money from seemingly everywhere) has accompanied the generative AI 'boom'. Since the release of ChatGPT in November 2022, the generative AI market has reached into the billions and according to industry reports has a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) that will reach over a hundred billion in the next five years.
 
To put it another way, far beyond ledger sheets and the market, large Language Models (LLMs) are projected to be the next revolution of the Net and tech. The Web, software/hardware/firmware, chips and chip development, geopolitics and international competition, economics with database targeted marketing (and the snooping) world of governments and companies) are all in play and the numbers involved are larger that can be displayed on any spreadsheet or analysis of spreadsheets.
 
The facts are, however one looks at an AI revolution-in-the-making, the West Coast/Siiicon Valley U.S. power companies are out in force. Alongside are the top-tier venture capital brokers and [https://www.eweek.com/artificial-intelligence/generative-ai-companies/ '''top-of-market generative AI companies'''] are creating and shaping a world-yet-to-be-definded of proprietary, profit-seeking ventures.
 
More on 2024 AI top-tier and emerging companies:

Within this gold rush, GreenPolicy360 asks 'what of the prospectors who have a public mission?' What of those who are looking to do 'good work' and be 'sustainable' with revenues, but are not looking to make a 'killing in the market'. What are the prospects of those who are beginning to develop AI capabilities with a public interest, and a commons outreach, transparency and a working model that is building in checks and balances to prevent misuse of their info and delivery platforms, acting to prevent dis- and misinformation and the consequences of AI going rogue?
 
Turning to mission statements and educational/beneficial uses for AI/generative development, let's look at a first-gen model that has now entered the AI dev field with a mission statement of sharing climate-related research and green, environmental solutions to the climate crisis.

Do you want a Powerpoint presentation of the state of the climate change challenge, an overview that touches on science, and economics, and politcs, and solutions, and academics, and critical thinking, and our generation's 'environmental century'?
 
Then here it is. The good professor walks us through touch points that illustrate the nature of the #ClimateCrisis, and what's being done about it, and what's not being done and could be done.
 
The journey the professor guides us along isn't an easy road to traverse. In fact, the narrative is an overwhelming journey that requires great strength to travel. Ready?
 
The YouTube presentation is a bit old fashioned these days, with the PPT not exactly the latest in presentation tools, but then again what do you want, AI?
 
Then come along for the ride, click [https://youtu.be/LzkU_xyWApA '''YouTube here''']

As societies search for ways to become more sustainable, Fritjof Capra suggests incorporating the same principles on which nature’s ecosystems operate. In his essay, “Speaking Nature’s Language: Principles for Sustainability” from the book Ecological Literacy, he leaves a blueprint for building a more resilient world on the foundation of natural concepts, such as interdependence and diversity.
 
Green ideas and writings of Dr. Capra and Charlene Spretnak were keys to the start up of the Green Party: [https://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/File:Green_Politics_by_Charlene_Spretnak_and_Fritjof_Capra.jpg GREEN POLITICS]: The Global Promise by Charlene Spretnak and Fritjof Capra

From the [http://www.bioneers.org Bioneers] / If anyone has learned to speak nature’s language, it is Fritjof Capra. A founding director of the Center for Ecoliteracy and currently chair of its board, he has distinguished himself over the past forty years as a scientist, systems theorist, and explorer of the philosophical and social ramifications of contemporary science.
 
Introducing Dr. Capra to an overflow audience at a Bioneers Conference plenary, Kenny Ausubel speaks of physics, connectivity, and eco-undertanding:
 
“One of Fritjof Capra’s greatest gifts is his ability to digest enormous amounts of information from highly complex, wide-ranging fields of inquiry. Not only does he explain them elegantly and clearly, but he distills their essence and sees their implications. Because he’s a credentialed scientist who did his time with particle accelerators all over Europe and the United States, Fritjof never overstates his case or lapses into wishful thinking.”
 
After receiving his Ph.D. in theoretical physics from the University of Vienna in 1966, Capra did research in particle physics at the University of Paris, the University of California at Santa Cruz, the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, Imperial College of the University of London, and the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory at the University of California. He also taught at UC Santa Cruz, UC Berkeley, and San Francisco State University.
 
He is the author of five international bestsellers: The Tao of Physics (1975), The Turning Point (1982), Uncommon Wisdom (1988), The Web of Life (1996), and The Hidden Connections (2002). He coauthored Green Politics (1984), Belonging to the Universe (1991), and EcoManagement (1993), and coedited Steering Business Toward Sustainability (1995).

Let's take a moment from our active lives and, as [http://www.planetcitizens.org planet citizens], look back 'at the roots' of environmental, ecological studies. The classics, whole earth, the big picture, a vision of our Earth as our common home:
 
''"This is a critical moment in the Earth’s history. Though reasonable people may debate the causes and disagree about what is to be done, there is little doubt that humanity faces significant, global environmental problems affecting the quality and sustainability of human, and non-human, life on this planet.  At such an historical moment, Lawrence and other institutions of higher education have an obligation to respond."''

''The "golden era" of American environmental lawmaking in the 1960s and 1970s saw twenty-two pieces of major environmental legislation (including the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, and the Endangered Species Act) passed by bipartisan majorities in Congress and signed into law by presidents of both parties. But since then partisanship, the dramatic movement of Republicans to the right, and political brinksmanship have led to legislative gridlock on environmental issues. In this book, Christopher Klyza and David Sousa argue that the longstanding legislative stalemate at the national level has forced environmental policymaking onto other pathways.''

ClimateGPT

Today's question: Several months after its AI launch announcement, how is ClimateGPT doing?

As a new and open source climate & green politics project, ClimateGPT is moving into the GreenPolicy360 arena and we have now turned an eye on the flight path of ClimateGPT's launch.

Let's take a quick look.


SJS/GreenPolicy360 Siterunner: As most everyone in the Internet-connected world knows by now, an immense amount of attention (and deep-pocket money from seemingly everywhere) has accompanied the generative AI 'boom'. Since the release of ChatGPT in November 2022, the generative AI market has reached into the billions and according to industry reports has a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) that will reach over a hundred billion in the next five years.

To put it another way, far beyond ledger sheets and the market, large Language Models (LLMs) are projected to be the next revolution of the Net and tech. The Web, software/hardware/firmware, chips and chip development, geopolitics and international competition, economics with database targeted marketing (and the snooping) world of governments and companies) are all in play and the numbers involved are larger that can be displayed on any spreadsheet or analysis of spreadsheets.

The facts are, however one looks at an AI revolution-in-the-making, the West Coast/Siiicon Valley U.S. power companies are out in force. Alongside are the top-tier venture capital brokers and top-of-market generative AI companies are creating and shaping a world-yet-to-be-definded of proprietary, profit-seeking ventures.

More on 2024 AI top-tier and emerging companies:


Within this gold rush, GreenPolicy360 asks 'what of the prospectors who have a public mission?' What of those who are looking to do 'good work' and be 'sustainable' with revenues, but are not looking to make a 'killing in the market'. What are the prospects of those who are beginning to develop AI capabilities with a public interest, and a commons outreach, transparency and a working model that is building in checks and balances to prevent misuse of their info and delivery platforms, acting to prevent dis- and misinformation and the consequences of AI going rogue?

Turning to mission statements and educational/beneficial uses for AI/generative development, let's look at a first-gen model that has now entered the AI dev field with a mission statement of sharing climate-related research and green, environmental solutions to the climate crisis.

Climate Change 'End of Year Review'

by Professor Stephen Mulkey


Do you want a Powerpoint presentation of the state of the climate change challenge, an overview that touches on science, and economics, and politcs, and solutions, and academics, and critical thinking, and our generation's 'environmental century'?

Then here it is. The good professor walks us through touch points that illustrate the nature of the #ClimateCrisis, and what's being done about it, and what's not being done and could be done.

The journey the professor guides us along isn't an easy road to traverse. In fact, the narrative is an overwhelming journey that requires great strength to travel. Ready?

The YouTube presentation is a bit old fashioned these days, with the PPT not exactly the latest in presentation tools, but then again what do you want, AI?

Then come along for the ride, click YouTube here


And note a timeline of solutions our GreenPolicy360 siterunner has explored over the decades, beginning with a first generation of climate science initiatives in the 1970s....

Teaching Ecological Literacy


As societies search for ways to become more sustainable, Fritjof Capra suggests incorporating the same principles on which nature’s ecosystems operate. In his essay, “Speaking Nature’s Language: Principles for Sustainability” from the book Ecological Literacy, he leaves a blueprint for building a more resilient world on the foundation of natural concepts, such as interdependence and diversity.

Green ideas and writings of Dr. Capra and Charlene Spretnak were keys to the start up of the Green Party: GREEN POLITICS: The Global Promise by Charlene Spretnak and Fritjof Capra

Green Values / "It's All Connected" / Relational Reality by Charlene Spretnak


From the Bioneers / If anyone has learned to speak nature’s language, it is Fritjof Capra. A founding director of the Center for Ecoliteracy and currently chair of its board, he has distinguished himself over the past forty years as a scientist, systems theorist, and explorer of the philosophical and social ramifications of contemporary science.

Introducing Dr. Capra to an overflow audience at a Bioneers Conference plenary, Kenny Ausubel speaks of physics, connectivity, and eco-undertanding:

“One of Fritjof Capra’s greatest gifts is his ability to digest enormous amounts of information from highly complex, wide-ranging fields of inquiry. Not only does he explain them elegantly and clearly, but he distills their essence and sees their implications. Because he’s a credentialed scientist who did his time with particle accelerators all over Europe and the United States, Fritjof never overstates his case or lapses into wishful thinking.”

After receiving his Ph.D. in theoretical physics from the University of Vienna in 1966, Capra did research in particle physics at the University of Paris, the University of California at Santa Cruz, the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, Imperial College of the University of London, and the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory at the University of California. He also taught at UC Santa Cruz, UC Berkeley, and San Francisco State University.

He is the author of five international bestsellers: The Tao of Physics (1975), The Turning Point (1982), Uncommon Wisdom (1988), The Web of Life (1996), and The Hidden Connections (2002). He coauthored Green Politics (1984), Belonging to the Universe (1991), and EcoManagement (1993), and coedited Steering Business Toward Sustainability (1995).

Let's take a moment from our active lives and, as planet citizens, look back 'at the roots' of environmental, ecological studies. The classics, whole earth, the big picture, a vision of our Earth as our common home:

"This is a critical moment in the Earth’s history. Though reasonable people may debate the causes and disagree about what is to be done, there is little doubt that humanity faces significant, global environmental problems affecting the quality and sustainability of human, and non-human, life on this planet. At such an historical moment, Lawrence and other institutions of higher education have an obligation to respond."

GreenPolicy: Modern Environmental Movement


Managing the Environment, Managing Ourselves: A History of American Environmental Policy -- 2006 -- by Richard Andrews

Environmental Policy: New Directions for the 21st Century -- 2012 -- by Norman J Vig, Michael E Kraft

American Environmental Policy: Beyond Gridlock -- 2013 -- by Christopher McGrory Klyza, Christopher David J. Sousa


The "golden era" of American environmental lawmaking in the 1960s and 1970s saw twenty-two pieces of major environmental legislation (including the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, and the Endangered Species Act) passed by bipartisan majorities in Congress and signed into law by presidents of both parties. But since then partisanship, the dramatic movement of Republicans to the right, and political brinksmanship have led to legislative gridlock on environmental issues. In this book, Christopher Klyza and David Sousa argue that the longstanding legislative stalemate at the national level has forced environmental policymaking onto other pathways.
