Climate expertise, built into AI products.

AI Benchmarking · Climate

True Zero

“Most climate claims survive a press release. Not all of them survive this.”

AI read the reports. I decided what the findings meant. I reviewed the analysis six times before publishing it.

Geospatial + AI

Smoke Story

“Most wildfire tools show you the data. This one tells you what it means.”

Smoke Story combines satellite data on active fires and smoke with historical PM2.5 readings, AI-written explanations, and financial-impact estimates. It helps people understand what is happening, not just read the numbers.

Tina Huang

AI Educator & Coach · Climate AI Builder · AI-Native Solo Founder

I grew up in Hangzhou. It is a beautiful city, but for years the air was badly polluted. That is why I started working in climate.

At WRI, I analyzed national climate plans for countries around the world. The conclusion was uncomfortable: the world was far off track.

At BCG, I was the climate science and policy expert on the knowledge team. I helped a government in the Middle East write its national climate plans and helped companies build net-zero strategies they could carry out.

Today I teach and coach people through real AI projects, build climate AI tools, and run a solo business with systems I built myself.

I write in Chinese first, then adapt selected pieces into English.

I Stopped Trying to Figure Out My Next Career

I built eight small products and taught my first class. Those experiments told me more than months of thinking.

Solo Business · August 2026

How I Work Four Hours a Day

I give AI enough context to be useful, turn repeated work into systems, and decide what done means before I start. I count learning separately.

I Shipped Four AI Products in One Month

“No developer background. No roadmap. Just a download and a problem worth solving.”

NoThanks

“You already know you should say no. You just don't know how.”

Describe the situation and get a reply you can send. I built it using frameworks I learned at BCG for saying no at work without burning bridges.

Echo

“Cold, vast, and quiet. The way space actually feels.”

Built after watching Project Hail Mary. A starfield that breathes with the music. Three classical pieces — Debussy, Satie, Holst. Or bring your own.
