Data science for the environment | Dan Hammer | TEDxBerkeley

Since the industrial revolution, as human technology has advanced, the environment has suffered. Dan Hammer is looking to turn this paradigm on its head, as he takes a high-tech approach to preserving the environment by using data science and satellite imagery to monitor and protect forests all around the globe.

As an Environmental Scientist, This is a great video. Thanks Dan Hammer. We must know that the earth is falling apart and what we can do to keep it together is very important. You can't change what you can't see. Now we can see and still looking

This video is very insightful and thought-provoking. It shows how can we use technology in a sustainable way that would help to identify, monitor and assess human involvement in activities that harm the environment and the global dynamics of climate change and its ongoing threats to humanity. Also, I liked how Hammer is aware the importance of presenting your findings in a way that feed and inform environmental policy and practitioners to act, collaborate and tackle environmental threats in both local and international level.

David Guetta is also a data expert apart from being a legendary DJ! 😎

"you can't change what you can't see" is a fundamentally nonsense statement. There are many things humans change that they cannot see for example sound waves, radio waves, certain light waves, extreme small stuff and the list goes on and on.... nice video though
