Reducing methane is the strategic measure we can take now to keep global warming in-check and deliver a cleaner future for all. At Space4Climate member GHGSat, it’s in their DNA to take an active role in the challenge of climate change, to deliver the timely and objective data needed to identify and curb the sources of emissions globally.

UK analysis of data from the Japanese GOSAT satellite over many years is revealing detailed regional patterns in methane emissions. Predictions of future climate change need to understand and model global distributions of greenhouse gases, and the different processes that control their behaviour.
Dr Chris Holloway from the University of Reading takes a look at how satellite data improvements for your daily weather forecast can be used for climate action and explains why satellite missions launched now secure scientific capability for future generations.
Airbus is engaged in establishing solutions to help monitor, manage and mitigate the impact of climate change.
The S4C Climate Talent Competition 2019 led to a UK-based demonstrator project on the recovery of Peatland areas.
Satellite data helps to provide real-time information and work out how climate change affects the distribution, severity and frequency of thunderstorms, thus increasing aviation safety.
Deriving geospatial data inputs from EO satellites provides a fast and cost-effective method of understanding current air pollution.
SMEETH: space for monitoring environmental effects on health is a tool designed to handle atmospheric satellite data, modelled air quality and meteorological data with correlated geo-referenced medical records.
An authoritative hub of climate information for understanding past and future impact of climate change across a variety of market sectors and society.
