It was an absolute delight to present "The Rise of Agentic AI: What It Means for #Climate Innovation" during Climate Week at @columbiaengineering!

We love the way Kara Lamb (LEAP's #AI + Science Director) put it: "With the application of machine learning more broadly to science ... we can see links between, say, atmospheric #physics and similarities to problems in astrophysics or biology, and the way they solve those problems. Now, with #agentic workflows, we can see the meta-science of what really are the fundamental problems and the links between fields, and we can really have #progress across multiple different directions."

Thank you so much to LEAP PI Dhruv Balwada for so thoughtfully moderating this excellent panel; our panelists, Duncan Anderson, Ignacio Lopez Gomez, Pierre Gentine, Sameer Mohamed, Sarika de Bruyn, and Kara; and our enthusiastic colleagues at Columbia Engineering, Vishal Misra, Alexis Newman and Antonia Forika!

And thank YOU, guests, for joining us last week. We hope your Climate Week 2026 was inspiring, and we look forward to seeing you at more LEAP events to come!

๐ŸŽ‰ What a great way to head into the weekend: our work with @amazonwebservices has garnered a 2026 AWS Champion in Higher Education award! ๐ŸŽ‰

๐ŸŒ โ€œWorking with AWS has helped us lower the technical barriers to #climate #data science research while giving our students meaningful experience building with generative and agentic #AI. By combining LEAPโ€™s scientific expertise with accessible #cloud technologies, we are enabling more researchers, students, and community members to pursue creative data-driven ideas in climate #research.โ€ - Tian Zheng, Professor of Statistics at @columbia and AutoClimDS project lead

โœจ Congratulations, Tian and team (Ayon Roy, Ahmed Jaber, Ray Tang)!

One of the delights of LEAP's #Education programming has been our annual Summer Institute on Climate Education. 

For the past three years, #NYC public school teachers at the elementary, middle, and high school levels have gathered to receive training and professional development in incorporating climate education into their curricula. Educators from throughout New York City's 5 boroughs created a vibrant learning community, bringing together their expertise in math, ELA, social studies, sciences, the humanities, art, music, etc., and taking back to their communities a broader vision for climate-integrated education.

โœจ THIS SUMMER, it all comes together in conversation, distillation, application, and SHARING beyond the boundaries of NYC. You won't want to miss this 2026 Climate Education Knowledge Sharing Convening. โœจ

* July 20-23, 2026
* Virtual, with live Zoom sessions + asynchronous materials

Read more, and enroll TODAY at "2026 Climate Education Knowledge Sharing Convening" link in bio!
