contents The proliferation of machine learning and artificial intelligence redefines the interaction between the anthropogenic and natural elements of our habitat.The use of monitoring tools, processing facilities and the internet of things supports the assessment of planetary health at any given time through automation. However, these data, natural resources and infrastructure intensive technologies are not neutral on the Earth. As the community of AI practitioners works on the creation of tools with minimal socio-environmental impacts, we contribute to the these efforts by proposing a novel conceptual and procedural framework which we call Circular Intelligence or CIntel. CIntel leverages a bottom-up and community-driven approach to learn from the ability of nature to regenerate and adapt. CIntel incorporates ethical principles in its technical design to preserve the stability of the habitat, while also increasing the well-being of its inhabitants by design.
