Abstract	Machine Learning (ML) has emerged as a transformative technology for environmental monitoring and climate resilience by enabling intelligent analysis of large-scale environmental datasets generated from satellites, remote sensing systems, Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, weather stations, drones, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and climate models. The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning, Big Data Analytics, Cloud Computing, Edge Computing, Digital Twins, and Earth Observation technologies has significantly improved the prediction, monitoring, and management of climate-related risks, including extreme weather events, air and water pollution, deforestation, biodiversity loss, droughts, floods, wildfires, coastal erosion, and greenhouse gas emissions. Machine learning algorithms provide accurate forecasting, anomaly detection, environmental risk assessment, and decision support, thereby strengthening climate adaptation, disaster preparedness, ecosystem conservation, and sustainable resource management. This study investigates Machine Learning applications in environmental monitoring and climate resilience using a multidisciplinary perspective. A qualitative and analytical research methodology based on secondary data from environmental science, computer science, climate science, remote sensing, ecology, geography, engineering, and public policy literature is employed to examine machine learning techniques, intelligent environmental monitoring frameworks, implementation strategies, governance mechanisms, and future research opportunities. Particular emphasis is placed on supervised learning, unsupervised learning, deep learning, remote sensing analytics, explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI), climate modelling, smart environmental systems, and sustainable development. The findings indicate that Machine Learning significantly improves environmental monitoring accuracy, climate prediction, disaster risk reduction, biodiversity conservation, natural resource management, and evidence-based environmental policymaking. Intelligent analytics enable early warning systems, precision agriculture, smart water management, carbon emission estimation, and ecosystem monitoring while supporting the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, challenges including data quality, model interpretability, computational complexity, limited environmental datasets, cybersecurity risks, interoperability issues, ethical considerations, and digital infrastructure constraints remain major barriers to large-scale implementation. The study concludes that integrating Machine Learning with Earth observation technologies, IoT, Digital Twins, cloud computing, and interdisciplinary collaboration provides a comprehensive pathway toward resilient, intelligent, and sustainable environmental management.
