Climate change is an important problem that defines our era. The negative effects of climate change bring important social, economic, and environmental consequences. Today, the use of artificial intelligence in combating these problems is increasing and there are many applications in different fields. The two most important strategies in combating climate change defined by the United Nations are greenhouse gas mitigation and adapting to the existing and potential impacts of climate change. The use of artificial intelligence offers important opportunities to decision makers and researchers in order to develop existing understanding and practices in the field of both greenhouse gas mitigation and adaptation, and to identify different perspectives and strategies. However, artificial intelligence systems also create new social and ethical problems in these processes and cause a significant increase in greenhouse gas emissions. This makes the use of artificial intelligence one of the factors that cause harm to human health and all living things by exacerbating climate change. The aim of this study is to evaluate the opportunities and problems created by artificial intelligence within the scope of combating climate change. As a result of the study, it has been concluded that the use of artificial intelligence will significantly support climate change combat and adaptation activities if it can be managed in the context of energy use, environmental effects, and carbon footprint and ethically.
