Climate change is disproportionately affecting Canada, causing the country to warm two times faster than theglobal average and three times faster in Canada's North. Canada must aim to reverse this trend by meeting itsglobal commitments to protect 30% of land and sea by 2030 (30x30), and reach its target of net-zero emissionsby 2050.Fortunately, as a world-leader in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, Canada is well-positioned tosteer the transformative potential of the new digital and data-driven economy, towards solving the climatechallenge. With this context as background, a partnership between Microsoft and our applicant team wasformed, with the goal to explore the opportunities and challenges of meeting Canada's global environmentalcommitments in a just, equitable, and inclusive manner, through the application of artificial intelligence (AI)and digital tools. This partnership has an explicit objective to explore dimensions of social equity, dataownership, and Indigenous conceptions of nature and of technology, as a foundation for any proposed digitalsolution.Our expected outcome for this partnership is a co-designed, multi-component framework It will be created andthus used by many stakeholders including a) government: to guide decisions on, and monitoring of, public andindustry climate action strategies including extractive activities, b) industry: to guide investments in carbonoffset programs and GHG emission reduction strategies c) Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLC):to enable data ownership, empower land management and preserve knowledge systems and livelihoods.

气候变化对加拿大的影响不成比例，导致该国变暖速度比全球平均速度快两倍，加拿大北部快三倍。加拿大必须致力于扭转这一趋势，履行其全球承诺，到2030年保护30%的陆地和海洋，并在2050年前实现净零排放的目标。幸运的是，作为人工智能（AI）和机器学习的世界领导者，加拿大有能力引导新的数字和数据驱动经济的变革潜力，以解决气候挑战。在此背景下，微软与我们的申请团队建立了合作伙伴关系，目标是通过应用人工智能（AI）和数字化工具，以公正、公平和包容的方式探索满足加拿大全球环境承诺的机遇和挑战。该合作伙伴关系的明确目标是探索社会公平、数据所有权以及土著人对自然和技术的概念，作为任何拟议数字解决方案的基础。我们对该合作伙伴关系的预期成果是一个共同设计的多组件框架。该框架将由许多利益相关者创建并使用，包括：指导包括采掘活动在内的公共和工业气候行动战略的决策和监测，B）工业：c）土著人民和地方社区：促进数据所有权，增强土地管理能力，保护知识体系和生计。
