In an interview with Jungle Bird, Rebecca Moore, a computer scientist and software professional at Google, discussed her impactful work. She famously used Google Earth to halt the logging of over a thousand acres of redwoods in her Santa Cruz Mountain community.

Moore also initiated and leads the development of Google Earth Engine, a new technology platform supporting global-scale data-mining of satellite imagery for societal benefit. She holds a bachelor's degree in AI from Brown University, a master's from Stanford, and is on leave from a Stanford Ph.D. program. This interview was published on Sep 16, 2014.
