Trees are natureās carbon keepers - and satellites help us watch over them. š³
By tracking vegetation growth & forest health from space, scientists can see how much carbon dioxide plants are absorbing and where reforestation efforts are working.

DYK the clouds above our oceans play a role in understanding climate? āļø
Marine stratocumulus clouds, which reflect sunlight & help cool the oceans, are shrinking as sea temperatures rise.
Fewer clouds mean warmer oceans - learn how satellites can help track this critical change: bit.ly/497OPPZ
Decades of satellite data reveal how rising temperatures are hitting the poles. š°ļøš”ļø
A new EUMETSAT case study examines what is driving these shifts - and why monitoring from space matters.
