"Happy Earth Day" will probably be even more meaningful if we hold it together long enough to have some humans on Mars. Until then, Happy Earth Day. This is the decade for Grid Guardians to emerge and contribute to a rapidly developing decentralized energy production and real-time, on-demand delivery future.

#Nuclearfusion and #nuclearfission both release a great deal of energy and can power the entire planet with #cleanelectricity. However, they are often misunderstood forces of nature. In our latest video, we explain how both processes work and how they differ. https://buff.ly/4el04ET

Scientists travel the globe for each #SolarEclipse, to catch a brief glimpse of the Sun's ghostly atmosphere. But what exactly causes solar eclipses, and how do scientists try to make their own, including with ESA’s new #Proba3 mission? #SolarEclipse2024 https://lnkd.in/e-bdmi6u

The ecosystem of methane-tracking instruments is growing. #MethaneSAT, launched on March 4, is currently being calibrated and configured to deliver world-changing data that will more accurately and quickly quantify methane emissions globally stemming from the oil & gas sector.

Quebec-based GHGSat is using satellite technology as the next frontier in methane emissions monitoring. Learn how Canada continues to lead the way, from space: https://bit.ly/3Y4nkz6 (From Canada's Friendly Energy)

🌍 With MethaneSAT's launch, the world gains a powerful tool to #CutMethane and unlock #ClimateAction “We’re on the verge of a methane data revolution... in which satellites are having a very prominent role,” said Manfredi Caltagirone, head of the UN Environment Programme's International Methane Emissions Observatory. 🛰 “MethaneSAT is exciting in particular... because it’s expected to give us much better data than what we have now.” While satellite tracking tools are an important start to tackling methane emissions, they’re not the entire solution. 🛠 “They’re necessary but they’re not sufficient to fix the problem, and that is because data per se do not reduce emissions.” Progress depends on companies doing something with the data. UNEP’s IMEO exists to bridge the gap between data and action, putting open and reliable data into the hands of those with the power to #CutMethane.
