Leaders 2050 x PNWCW: Navigating the Impact of AI on Sustainability

​Explore the Future of AI and Sustainability with KPMG’s Leaders 2050 at Pacific Northwest Climate Week

​Join other young professionals for a dynamic panel discussion on the evolving intersection of artificial intelligence and sustainability. As AI reshapes the climate landscape, it offers powerful tools for modeling, emissions tracking, and resource optimization—but not without trade-offs. The energy and resource demands of AI raise critical questions about its environmental footprint.

​This session will bring together emerging leaders to unpack the dual nature of AI in climate action. We’ll explore how AI is being deployed across industries, the ethical and environmental dilemmas it presents, and what it will take to ensure AI accelerates—rather than impedes—our path to a sustainable future.

​Following the panel, join us for a networking session designed to connect young professionals working across sustainability, technology, and climate innovation. Whether you're looking to expand your network, share ideas, or find collaborators, this is your opportunity to engage with the next generation of climate leaders.

​We are excited to highlight the following panelists:

​ Momo Nakamura. Plug and Play; Manager, AI Center of Excellence

​Amy Fisher. Muir AI; Director of Partnerships

​Katie Krupin. Microsoft; Program Manager, Traceability

​Ben Reiss. KPMG; Director, Operational Excellence & Sustainability
