Carbon Monitoring System

The Carbon Monitoring System (CMS) is a technology that uses satellites, sensors, and data analysis to track the amount of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere and how it changes over time. This helps scientists understand where carbon is being emitted and absorbed, such as from forests, cities, and industries. The information supports efforts to reduce greenhouse gases and combat climate change by providing accurate, timely data to policymakers, researchers, and land managers. Essentially, CMS acts like a global health monitor for the Earth's carbon levels, offering insights to help protect our environment.
