GatherVerse
Earth Report Summit 2026:
The State of Earth and All Life Within It
September 29-30, 2026
8:00 AM PST each day
Virtual Global
Earth is under strain across air, water, land, food, energy, ecosystems, and daily life. Heat, flooding, drought, wildfire, pollution, habitat loss, rising demand, industrial expansion, and large-scale computation are affecting the living condition of this planet in real time. GatherVerse Earth Report Summit 2026 brings these realities into one global conversation through the lens that defines GatherVerse, the intersection of emerging technologies and humanity.
About
This summit is open to everyone who lives on Earth and cares about where we are, where we are heading, and how we respond. It will examine the condition of the planet across human life, animal life, and plant life, while also taking a serious look at the systems and technologies now influencing climate and Earth itself. That includes artificial intelligence, robotics, physical AI, spatial intelligence, data infrastructure, biomarine innovation, sensing systems, environmental modeling, energy systems, and the expanding footprint of compute and data centers.
We will ask hard and necessary questions. How is AI affecting climate strain and resource use? How can advanced systems support protection, restoration, preparedness, and public understanding? How should robotics, automation, and industrial intelligence be discussed in relation to land, oceans, species, energy demand, and long-range planetary health? Where are these technologies helping, where are they causing harm, and where do responsibility and restraint need to lead?
Researchers, students, technologists, founders, nonprofit leaders, public servants, investors, educators, environmental organizations, artists, scientists, builders, and community voices will gather to share work, warnings, practical approaches, and grounded ideas for living better on Earth while building responsibly within it.

Our Focus
Anyone who cares about the condition of this planet and the future of life within it.
We will look closely at the environmental cost and environmental promise of advanced systems, including AI, robotics, large-scale computation, and industrial infrastructure.
We will explore how emerging technologies can support restoration, preparedness, protection, education, and public understanding across human, animal, and plant life.
We will center responsibility, care, and practical pathways that help people and institutions act with greater awareness of the planet that holds us all.
