Learn about an innovative AI-based satellite analysis solution for reducing greenhouse gas emissions in rice farming through this 15-minute conference talk from SK AI SUMMIT 2024. Discover how Thanks Carbon developed technology to transparently verify greenhouse gas reduction projects in agriculture, forestry, and wetlands. Explore their successful implementation of Alternate Wetting and Drying (AWD) techniques in rice cultivation, which reduces methane emissions while providing economic benefits to farmers through carbon credits. Follow their journey from successful pilot projects in Korea and Vietnam to expanding initiatives across the Mekong Delta, Cambodia, and Bangladesh, with the ambitious goal of reducing 3.3 million tons of greenhouse gases by 2030. Presented by Haewon Kim, founder of Thanks Carbon, current member of the Presidential Committee on Carbon Neutrality and Green Growth, and former special professor at Ewha Womans University.
