AI for sustainability: What Watershed AI fellows learned in 8 weeks

What is the Watershed AI Fellowship? It's an eight-week program where corporate sustainability professionals learn to apply AI to their own company's emissions data—working directly with Watershed's AI engineers and climate scientists. In this video, fellows from the first cohort—Kyle Robertson (Hain Celestial), Lauren Esposito (Booking Holdings), and Joshua Papachristidis (Pearson)—share how the program changed their work. They cover why hands-on AI training with real sustainability data matters, what it's like to build AI workflows for decarbonization, and how a small peer cohort helped them tackle shared challenges like data cleaning and limited team bandwidth. The Watershed AI Fellowship is open to Watershed customers only. 🔗 Watershed sustainability AI platform: https://watershed.com/platform/sustainability-ai 🔗 Meet the first fellows: https://watershed.com/blog/meet-the-first-ai-fellows 🔗 Apply for the AI Fellowship (Watershed customers only): https://watershed.com/ai-fellowship TIMESTAMPS 0:00 What is the Watershed AI Fellowship? 0:11 How AI training revitalized my sustainability work 0:18 Why peer community matters for sustainability teams 0:31 Learning AI with real emissions data 0:42 Working with your own company's sustainability data 0:58 Understanding AI in a sustainability context 1:16 Meeting peers across industries 1:33 How AI supports decarbonization
