So there's been. Some some settings there and I was really were distracted by TV director of ANUSA who said, well, yes, you know, we need to break beyond the space bubble effectively. I'm paraphrasing, but and I think this is all this is essential really for.

From all walks of life and, and yes so yeah so as I say there's quite a few people coming back from lunch and it's yes so the discussion really this afternoon and we'll kind of follow on a bit from so there's been discussion of pack for the future so picking up from recent developments at the UN General Assembly there's. There was also the Lisbon Declaration after an event in in Lisbon back in May, which I was fortunate to attend and that that really was bringing together aspects from. Online participation of from the policy side, but then also the scientific and technical side. So, so there that that and then the listing declaration was that. Find a path of that so.

So I mean with all the data that we gather from climate change and for for Earth observation in Europe, we have a Copernicus and so there's various services. ECMWF managed the camps and C3, so the atmosphere monitoring service and the climate change service and and there's other services as well, for instance CMS, which is the marine service by McKay to ocean amongst others like land monitoring, I think was the European Environment Agency.
