Global Stocktake: how space drives climate action
Almost 200 countries are gathering in Dubai to attend the biggest climate event of the year. COP28 ? the 2023 United Nations climate change summit ? isn?t just another conference though. For the first time, country representatives will assess the progress they?ve made towards cutting their greenhouse gas emissions through a process called the ?global stocktake?. Satellites are critical in the quest to tackle climate change as they give the robustness and transparency needed to monitor progress towards a lower-emissions and more resilient world. If undertaken effectively, the global stocktake can provide an opportunity to leverage decisions and accelerate ambition in climate action plans.
