Google joins mission to map methane from space

In a groundbreaking collaboration, Google has partnered with the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) to launch a new satellite mission aimed at monitoring and mapping methane gas emissions from space.

The mission, known as the MethaneSAT, will utilize cutting-edge technology to track methane emissions with unprecedented precision. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, and its monitoring is crucial to understanding and combating climate change.

Google’s expertise in data analysis and satellite technology will be instrumental in the success of the MethaneSAT mission. By leveraging Google’s resources and capabilities, the EDF hopes to create a powerful tool for monitoring and reducing methane emissions worldwide.

This collaboration marks a significant step forward in the fight against climate change. By harnessing the power of technology and innovation, Google and the EDF are working together to create a more sustainable future for our planet.
