A single gas leak in Pennsylvania vented more than 1.4B cubic ft of methane into the atmosphere. That’s as much climate pollution as 261 coal plants! There’s nothing “clean” about “#naturalgas"

We have so many solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate

98% of Costa Rica's power already comes from #renewables. Half of the land is covered by forest. They're aiming to transform their entire economy to have a zero carbon footprint.

It can be done, let's get moving. #ActOnClimate

In 1985, Carl Sagan told Congress that continuing to burn fossil fuels will increase global temperature, cause climate change, melt glaciers and ice sheets, and cause sea level rise. Imagine if we had listened to him them.

These tiny wind turbines are designed for rooftops. They measure only 3 metres by 3 metres. They can sit on the edge of a roof and are small enough to squeeze in alongside solar panels.

A sharper view of our changing planet is coming. 🛰️🌎

Meet LandIS, the Landsat Instrument Suite that will fly aboard Landsat 10, the next satellite in the Landsat series.

With 26 spectral bands spanning visible light to thermal infrared, LandIS will collect more than twice as and Landsat 9. These additional bands will help users better distinguish features on Earth’s surface and monitor water quality, agriculture, vegetation health, snow and ice, soil conditions, and other environmental parameters.

LandIS will also capture finer spatial detail, with resolutions of 10 to 20 meters for visible, near-infrared, and shortwave-infrared observations. That means a clearer view of smaller features, including streams, streamside habitats, woodlots, and individual agricultural fields.

Together, more spectral bands and finer spatial resolution will help users detect, distinguish, and track environmental change with greater detail and precision.

Expected to begin operations in the early 2030s, LandIS will also continue Landsat’s coverage of sunlit land and near-shore waters, along with select nighttime observations. It will also uphold the program’s high standards for data accuracy, extending a record of Earth observations that spans more than 54 years.

Let’s take the scenic route across Massachusetts! 🛰️

Massachusetts ratified the U.S. Constitution on Feb. 6, 1788, becoming the sixth state. As America marks 250 years, the Bay State comes into view in our America from Space journey.

Though the seventh-smallest state by land home to about 7 million people, more than 1,500 miles of coastline, and forests covering roughly 60 percent of the state. That mix gives Landsat three very different stories to tell.

First stop: Cape Cod. The state’s coastline has long supported fishing, maritime trade, and tourism. Wind, waves, and storms continually reshape the Cape’s beaches and barrier islands. Long-term Landsat imagery helps researchers track shoreline movement, breaches, and other coastal changes—information that can support coastal management.

Next: Boston and Cambridge. Boston has more than 18,000 people per square mile, and urban heat hotspots can increase health risks. Buildings and pavements can have higher land surface temperatures than trees, parks, and water. Landsat’s thermal observations can map those differences and help identify hotspots. Cambridge used Landsat data to help develop an urban heat island model that informed its 2021 Resilient Cambridge Plan.

Farther west, October Mountain State Forest brings Massachusetts’ forests into view. Forests play an important role in storing carbon. As Massachusetts developed its decarbonization plan, Landsat land-cover data helped researchers’ model how forest growth, development, and tree harvesting could affect future carbon storage.
