NASA's Carbon Monitoring System
NASA's Carbon Monitoring System (CMS) is a program that uses satellite data and advanced technology to track how much carbon dioxide (CO₂) is emitted and absorbed by Earth's ecosystems and human activities. By providing detailed, up-to-date information, CMS helps scientists, policymakers, and industries better understand the carbon cycle, identify sources of emissions, and develop strategies to reduce greenhouse gases. This system enhances our ability to monitor climate change impacts, support sustainable practices, and inform global efforts to mitigate global warming effectively.
