ICCS at the Cambridge Festival

Meet some of the researchers from the Institute of Computing for Climate Science (ICCS) who are developing AI projects to address climate change.

Be among the first to play our new game, Planktomania – a Pacman-style game based on research which looks at how changes in temperature or circulation will affect ocean ecosystems.

Scientists are developing a new AI tool that provides governments with deeper insights into the climate crisis. At their stand, experiment with their AI for Climate and Nature Land Use Dashboard to see if you can identify decisions – like reducing fossil fuel production or halting deforestation – that could help cut greenhouse gas emissions and reduce the impact of global warming.

Try the Drowning Cities activity and discover how AI can help predict and prevent flooding. Build your own LEGO® town and test your skills by answering a series of multiple-choice questions to see if you can keep it safe from floods. You’ll meet researchers who can explain how climate change and storm surges are increasing the risk of flooding and how AI is being used to predict the occurrence of these events.

Or take a VR tour of Dawn, the UK's fastest AI supercomputer. Using a headset, you can 'see' the supercomputer that is helping us develop technology for clean energy, personalised medicine and climate.
