Mind the gap!

An example of the discrepancy between what satellites see and what is reported by countries in regard to carbon sinks/sources⬇️
In a recent paper researchers use the example of Brazil where estimates using Earth observation data indicated that, between 2001 and 2020, the country as a whole was as a net carbon sink. This contrasts to the country’s inventory, which showed human activity, resulted in forests in Brazil being a net carbon source.

#FactFriday A common misconception we hear is climate change (CC) and global warming (GW) are the same and can be used interchangeably.
Similar to how a square is a rectangle but a rectangle is not a square... GW is a part of CC but CC is not just GW. climate.gov/news-features/cl…

The US has taken strong #ClimateAction in recent years, but it continues to expand #FossilFuel production and is on track to drill for more oil & gas in 2030 than any time in history. @DLashof explains how the US can shift course and be a climate leader: bit.ly/3Nidtl7
