MicroCarb will measure atmospheric Carbon Dioxide (CO2), determining emissions of carbon across the globe with extreme precision, even down to city level. This joint venture by the UK Space Agency and Centre National D’Etudes Spatiales (CNES) will allow scientists to determine how much carbon is being absorbed and emitted by natural processes and how much is emitted by human activities – data essential for the Global Stocktake.
