Abstract	Climate change has become one of the most critical global challenges, affecting ecosystems, human health, agriculture, water resources, biodiversity, and socio-economic stability. Increasing greenhouse gas emissions, extreme weather events, rising temperatures, changing precipitation patterns, and environmental degradation require advanced scientific approaches for accurate prediction, monitoring, and mitigation. Traditional climate modelling techniques, although highly valuable, often face limitations in processing complex environmental datasets and capturing nonlinear relationships among climate variables. Machine Learning (ML) has emerged as a powerful computational approach capable of analysing large-scale environmental data, identifying hidden patterns, improving climate predictions, and supporting sustainable environmental management. This study presents a comprehensive review of Machine Learning applications in climate change prediction and environmental monitoring. A qualitative and analytical research methodology based on secondary data is adopted to examine the role of supervised learning, deep learning, reinforcement learning, and hybrid AI models in climate science. The study explores ML applications in temperature forecasting, precipitation prediction, extreme weather event detection, air quality assessment, carbon emission monitoring, ecosystem analysis, remote sensing, and environmental resource management. The findings demonstrate that Machine Learning significantly enhances climate prediction accuracy, environmental observation capabilities, disaster preparedness, and sustainability planning. Deep learning models improve the analysis of satellite imagery, while predictive algorithms support early detection of floods, droughts, wildfires, and other climate-related hazards. Integration of ML with Internet of Things (IoT), remote sensing, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and Big Data Analytics enables real-time environmental intelligence and data-driven decision-making. Despite significant advantages, challenges remain regarding data quality, model interpretability, computational requirements, uncertainty management, ethical concerns, and accessibility of advanced technologies. Future research should focus on explainable artificial intelligence (XAI), physics-informed machine learning, climate digital twins, federated learning, and sustainable AI frameworks. The study concludes that Machine Learning represents a transformative tool for climate science by enabling more accurate prediction, intelligent monitoring, and effective environmental management. The integration of AI-driven approaches with scientific knowledge and policy frameworks will be essential for building climate-resilient and sustainable societies.
