understandable to humans.
A clear example of this is data from production plants where the connected elements feed a
constant flow of data on machine status, production, (36) , temperature, etc. to a central
core.
This enormous amount of data derived from the production process must be analyzed in order to
achieve continuous improvement and appropriate decision making, however, the volume of this
data means that humans must spend a great deal of time (days) on analysis and traceability.
This is when Machine Learning comes into play, allowing data to be analyzed as it is incorporated
into the production process and (37), patterns or anomalies in operation more quickly and

Biodiversity is variety of life on Earth, at all levels and the evolutionary and ecological
processes that sustain life of our planet. In 2019, the Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change
5reported that nearly 1 million of all species on Earth are facing the threat of extinction, which poses
akey threat to all life on Earth and sustainable development.
The UN had sought to protect global biodiversity through the UN Decade on Biodiversity
2011-2020. However, a recent UN report highlighted that none of the 20 targets which were signed
by participating countries would be fully met by the end of this year.
Scientists also now claim that our planet is entering its 6th mass extinction, which is largely
driven by human actions and behaviour, with a 68% decline in global populations of mammals,
birds, fish, amphibians and reptiles between 1970 and 2016. ‘The Executive Secretary of the
Convention on Biological Diversity, Elizabeth Mrema, quoted “We have no time to wait. Biodiversity
loss, nature loss, it is at an unprecedented level in the history of mankind..We're the most
dangerous species in global history.”
In light of this a recent United Nations Biodiversity Summit, held on 30th September 2020,
sought to provide Heads of State and Governments with information to allow them to be more
concerned and committed towards protecting biodiversity so they can implement initiatives and
policies to do so within their respective nations, This is particularly important as it is these key
stakeholders that would ensure the proper allocation of resources needed to meet the post-2020
Global Biodiversity Framework, as part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
