Project CHETNA (City-wise High Emission Tracking & Nationwide Analysis) is an Indo-French collaboration using AI, satellite observations & mobility data to generate near real-time, building-level CO₂ emissions insights across 100+ Indian cities. chetna-indian.netlify.app

@jaideepjoshi88 Curious to see how this work unfolds on the ground? Watch this short video from the Treehouse research group’s first field campaign: youtu.be/rmE9fzWSqg0

@jaideepjoshi88 and his team emphasize that robust monitoring and baseline data are essential first steps. Without them, even well-intentioned technologies can backfire, leading to maladaptation -- a challenge already highlighted in the IPCC AR6.

🌿Understand before you act.☘️ The Living Lab initiative is central to @iitbombay’s vision for sustainability. Prof. Jaideep Joshi and his team are establishing a Living Lab in the Western Ghats to closely study and monitor forest ecosystems. youtu.be/rmE9fzWSqg0
