Today is #WorldEnvironmentDay and the signs from our planet are clear. @UNEP is calling for action with #NowForClimate. Forests, oceans and wetlands offer solutions. But all of this needs a foundation: reliable, long-term data from space. See how @CAlbergel explains why

In climate modelling, one week of extreme fires can outweigh months of “normal” smoke if we don't measure precisely enough🔥 A new study improves how a global climate model sizes wildfire smoke emissions to differentiate between normal fires and extreme "mega fires". The
