China placed its inaugural global CO2 monitoring satellite, TanSat, into a sun-synchronous orbit in 2016, paving the way for research into the global carbon cycle. Following this milestone, Chinese research teams have utilized the satellite’s data to foster scientific partnerships, including a notable collaboration with a team from Finland.
The least the author could have done was link to some other article about what the notable collaboration was.
Actually, I guess the least was to state it without a link
Designed for external mounting, the device can measure carbon dioxide and methane concentrations at key emission sources across the globe’s mid-to-low latitudes. This will provide reliable, accurate, and high-frequency data to support greenhouse gas monitoring, reporting and verification. “This equipment will provide robust data support for China’s ‘dual carbon’ initiatives and contribute Chinese wisdom to the global response against climate change,” the National Space Science Center under the Chinese Academy of Sciences said in a statement. China has set the dual carbon goals of peaking carbon dioxide emissions before 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality before 2060.
This is great news. I hope they publish global measurements.
Yeah, I’d expect China will do a global science collab project with this data.
I particularly hope they publish US data. I hope USA becomes a global pariah exposed for every rotten thing we do, have done, contemplate, past, present, future. Shunning is the only way interested parties (wealth leeches) may be finally reckoned with.
