So, what does CO 2 have to do with climate change and a warming world?Ĭlimate actions can start at home: Are your plastic takeout containers piling up? Using the clothes dryer constantly? Well, protecting the planet starts with you, so here are 10 simple choices you can make now.

We have some big challenges threatening Earth and the lives that are sustained by it: Foremost on our minds is climate change.Īs you read this story, NOAA scientists are hard at work monitoring climate-influenced changes to the atmosphere and ocean. Here are 5 ways we're answering some of the biggest questions about climate change, such as exploring its link to hurricanes. (But first: What's the difference between weather and climate, anyway? Start here.)Ĭheck out this bit of climate news, hot off the presses: Recent observations show that greenhouse gases carbon dioxide (CO 2) and methane surged last year, despite pandemic-related shutdowns and people quarantined at home. Here are more Earth views you can choose: (NOAA Satellites)īut, it’s not all sunshine and rainbows for our home planet right now. NOAA satellites see it all-hurricanes, severe thunderstorms, lightning, fires, dust storms, air quality, fog, volcanic eruptions, vegetation, snow and ice cover, flooding, sea and land surface temperature, ocean health and more. We have been lucky to work with Adult Swim Games since very early in the project, and their contribution can't be overstated.Earth from Orbit: Every Day is Earth Day for NOAA Satellites Legend has it that below the many layers of filtering, the neon lizards' hiss is actually a Lydia Primate voice sample.
