5moAn outstanding and timely report from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA). The role of satellite technology and Earth Observation in climate science cannot be overstated. As we face increasingly complex environmental challenges, these advances are pivotal in providing accurate, real-time data for effective climate adaptation and mitigation strategies. The emphasis on international cooperation and public-private collaboration is particularly crucial. Optimizing space-based data for environmental applications requires a multidisciplinary approach, where technological innovation meets robust governance frameworks. Creative financing mechanisms and policy support will be essential to ensure that space technologies serve as the backbone for sustainable solutions. This report serves as a clear reminder of the potential space technologies hold in driving us towards our global climate goals. 🛰 🚀
