CONSERVATION VISION
Using Artificial Intelligence to Save the Planet.
A letter from our founder, John Amos
The trends aren’t encouraging: Industrialization, urban development, deforestation, overfishing, mining and pollution are accelerating the rate of global warming and damaging ecosystems around the world. The pace of environmental destruction has never been as great as it is today. Despite this grim assessment, I believe there’s reason to be hopeful for a brighter future.
New Intern Matthew Ibarra Shifts from Aerospace Engineering to Protecting the Planet from Space
/in SkyTruth Spotlight /by Matthew IbarraMatthew thought he wanted to be an aerospace engineer when he started college. Then he learned more about environmental damage to the planet.
My name is Matthew Ibarra and I am a new intern at SkyTruth. Originally I came to West Virginia University to study mechanical and aerospace engineering. However, as my time at WVU went on I became much less interested in engineering. I developed a passion for renewable energy and decided I wanted to shift my focus of study and work on environmental challenges.
