The full text on the slides is: Why are we talking about COP28? Climate change is a global problem that needs global solutions. The annual COP meetings bring together nearly 200 nations, so that governments can make decisions informed by accurate and up-to-date information about greenhouse gas emissions and the effects of climate change around the world. This year’s meeting is in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. NASA data is integral to the world’s understanding of climate change. For example, NASA satellite observations are used to measure greenhouse gases around the world. Global data is essential for global decision making. NASA’s free and open data can help governments and businesses understand their emissions and prepare for coming changes in the climate. NASA is sharing our science at COP 28. NASA scientists will showcase their climate change research. NASA senior officials will participate in COP events alongside other U.S. federal government officials.
Tackling climate change is a long-term problem, and we’re already looking ahead to new missions. We’re expanding our capabilities to build an even deeper understanding of our changing planet.
