🛰️ IASI fête ses 20 ans ! Cet outil développé par le #CNES et @eumetsat.int fournit près de 50 % des données utilisées par le modèle météo ARPEGE de Météo-France. Il aide aussi à suivre la pollution et le climat. 🌍 cnes.fr/actualites/i... #IASI #CNES

Es ist mal wieder soweit: zweimal im Jahr erinnert uns tagesschau.de daran dass die Winterzeit natürlicher ist. www.tagesschau.de/wissen/gesun...

ECMWF’s 9 km data is now free and open. The move will give more people access to accurate and localised forecasts. The resolution can make the difference, for example, between predicting rain in a large area and knowing which valley it will land in. Read more ➡️ www.ecmwf.int/en/about/med...

🌧️ Precipitaciones extraordinarias asociadas a la dana Adam Las tablas recogen los registros de precipitación acumulada en las últimas 24 y 36 horas, hasta las 9:00. Las zonas más afectadas han sido Comunitat Valenciana y Baleares

What is El Niño & how does it affect Europe?🌡️ A new EUMETSAT study shows this tropical Pacific warming shifts jet streams, making European summers warmer/drier & winters milder. Yet long-term human-induced climate change remains the main driver of rising temperatures.🌍 Learn more: bit.ly/4rYStTL

Frost season is starting. First widespread warning (of light frost), I think.

Nice article about an Italian startup selling “retro kits” to electrify old vespas. Dreaming of some global subsidy program for replacing scooter engines now. Imagine the win for the climate and local air quality 💚. www.tagesschau.de/wirtschaft/e...

"acting on their own" is pure marketing slop and active disinformation that directly stops the people causing the problems from suffering consequences for causing them

👏 Amnesty Germany‘s statement on the Nobel Peace Prize. They say that it’s the right signal at the right time and they call on governments, including the German one, to enforce international law even when it’s politically inconvenient.

Spectacular first images from #Copernicus Sentinel-3C have arrived! 🤩🛰️ Captured two weeks post-launch, initial data covers Central Europe, the Mediterranean, Arctic sea ice & the Bahamas. The mission will monitor ocean colour, sea level, ice height & surface temperatures. Read more: bit.ly/4yD0Zu5

What started as an experiment is now the world's largest SAR constellation. Since 2018, @esa.int has worked with ICEYE to bring its radar data to users, from disaster response to maritime monitoring, through Third Party Missions and Copernicus Contributing Missions. 🔗 earth.esa.int/eogateway/su...

During my trip to Spain, I was deeply moved to visit ESA's Cebreros ground station and personally thank the emergency responders, public authorities and local communities who worked tirelessly to protect lives, livelihoods and communities during this summer's wildfires that stretched across Spain.

Italians have the most cars among EU countries. Not surprised, I was honestly pretty shocked by the traffic and air quality in Rome 😔.

There’s still so much potential for #ClimateAction in traffic. 60% of European CO2 emissions in traffic are from cars. Last year, 17% of new cars in the EU were electric vehicles. German text on car traffic in the EU: www.destatis.de/Europa/DE/Th...

Tellus has a long, storied history. I submitted my first paper there 30 years ago for that reason. I'm excited about Tellus's rebirth and plan to submit my next paper on the Arctic Ocean carbon cycle there. In the age of money-grubbing publishers, I encourage you to consider Tellus.

Nooo Looks like another win for the extremist Afd party in the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. What’s wrong with people? Where should this lead us? www.dw.com/en/top-stori...

NEW: Climate change is influencing many of the likely drivers behind the devastating rock and ice collapse on the northern Nepalese border last month. 🧵👇(1/6)

This year produced the hottest summer in the history of modern France. Some of that record is down to the specific weather patterns that occurred this year, but global warming deserves a large share of the credit for generally making French summers hotter over time.

FLEX misst erstmals global die Gesundheit von Pflanzen aus dem All! Pflanzen erzeugen während der Photosynthese Strahlung im Infrarotbereich, die sich z.B. bei Trockenstress verändert, noch bevor Schäden sichtbar werden. Das leistet einen wichtigen Beitrag zur weltweiten Nahrungsmittelversorgung.

Launch success for #Copernicus Sentinel-3C! 🚀 📡 Signal acquired & solar array deployed - it's officially power positive! 🛰️✨ Congratulations to all partners, Sentinel-3 is a remarkable European achievement. We can't wait to operate -3C alongside -3A & -3B! 👏 Read full press release: bit.ly/4xncbcI

Another day, another launch 🚀 Later tonight, @esa.int's FLEX satellite and Copernicus Sentinel-3C are set to launch together on the same Vega-C rocket. Livestream starts at 02:50 CEST on 15 September, with liftoff scheduled for 03:21 CEST. See you on ESA WebTV Two! 🔗 www.esa.int/Applications...

📝 New article on Our World in Data: Is organic farming better for the environment than conventional farming? One of the most common questions we’re asked about food systems is whether organic farming is better for the environment than conventional methods.

Wow. Researchers at Leiden university and TU Delft university in the Netherlands accuse TU Munich of "gross misrepresentation" of their findings in the TUM press release of last week, which attacked EU regulations on vehicle emissions www.linkedin.com/pulse/misint...

Whatever they feared, this is so much better 😄. Watch this video, festival crowd singing Alphaville‘s ‘Forever Young’ after the band’s appearance at the German ‘Glücksgefühle’ festival had been canceled out of fear they might speak up against nazis (!). Not the only one, and more expected today.

My new favorite pastime is checking websites for AI generated images. Just kidding but I love the new EU rules, so informative. I hope people will take them seriously and comply with them. AI generated images need to be marked in a professional context, but not in a private context.
