‘Climate from Space’ demo
Discover our planet’s changing climate through the eyes of satellites with Climate from Space, a new digital book for iPad (https://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=1061553589&mt=8) and Android (https://www.amazon.com/European-Space-Agency-Climate-from/dp/B01NBKKHYK/ref=sr_1_3?s=mobile-apps&ie=UTF8&qid=1487766438&sr=1-3) tablets featuring interactive maps and video interviews with top scientists.
Showcasing more than 30 years of global satellite observations, this app explains climate change, the effect it has on our daily lives, and how satellites are monitoring the climate.

First
I would like an interactive model of the globe, where we can add data channels, and adjust the date, or press 'play' to run through at different speeds, in order to explore the data myself. It also needs a scale to make it possible to interpret. ESA, can you develop an interface to present this data interactively please?
Great video / initiative, added to our new Climate Change playlist

land on the moon. it would be cool.
And Donald Trump wan't to sign a treaty to lead out more CO2, god damn
How odd seeing this shortly after some president signed some executive order about coal. A coincidence surely… ;P
Thanks ESA! Keep fighting the good fight!
if you don't look at the data, this video is actually quite calming. but then comes the alarming CO2 data… 😬
climate change intensifies
The full presentation is now available free but not always available.
If you get geographic restrictions, you have to use the European Amazon site and not the US one they have linked.
There should never be restrictions on education and I hope this is an oversight on the ESA public relations department.

Stunning visual effects of climate change. Well done!
The theory of the anthropogenic greenhouse effect states that the IR remission from the middle to the upper troposphere into space decrease at a higher greenhouse gas concentration.
Is there any experiment verifying this theory?
Im just asking because the laws of thermodynamic say that a good absorber is also a good emitter..
