Workshop Welcome

THE FIRST GLOBAL VEGETATION MONITOR

GEOSS (Global Earth Observation System of Systems) Earth Observations Summit Observations to Users to Benefits

BUT……. Continuity of sensor platforms, algorithms and data processing, distribution… VALIDATION ???

Global Fires for 10 Days REDD – REDUCING EMISSIONS FROM DEFORESTATION AND DEGRADATION

NEE and Carbon credits Vs NPP and Biofuels It may be possible to do both and verify results

Would you invest $100,000,000,000 based on this information???

WE MAY BECOME THE GLOBAL CARBON COPS

Alan Greenspan ( US House of Representatives testimony Oct 24, 2008 ) “I discovered a flaw in the model that I perceived is the critical functioning structure that defines how the world works” WE UNDERSTAND THE GLOBAL CLIMATE BETTER THAN THE GLOBAL ECONOMY!!! $30 TRILLION !!!
