Carbon Counts: AI Hype, Hazards, and Real-World Impact

 

David LaGreca and Dave Lindenmuth are back with Carbon Counts, an informational series exploring how guidance from the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, state and local jurisdictions, and evolving consumer expectations are redefining transparency in emissions accounting.

This episode features EcoEngineers’ Climate Risk Director Roxby Hartley, and he along with LaGreca and Lindenmuth explore how artificial intelligence is shaping carbon accounting. The panel addresses three key areas:

  • Accuracy of AI-generated regulatory interpretations and life-cycle assessments
  • Policy and regulatory challenges with the technology, including gaps and risks in compliance
  • Broader impacts of AI, such as increased energy and water consumption by data centers and implications for Scope 3 emissions and ESG reporting

The session features real-world examples, debate the ongoing need for human expertise, and discuss the social and environmental consequences of AI adoption in sustainability.

This webinar originally aired on September 17, 2025.
