In this month's issue: Chloris at Climate Week NYC and fall events you can't miss! #climateweeknyc #earthobservation #nacs2024

Our Co-Founder, Giulio Boccaletti, was recently featured in the latest episode of the primetime Italian television program Noos - The Adventure of Knowledge, hosted by the renowned paleontologist and science communicator, Alberto Angela. If you want to practice your Italian, check out the clip showcasing Vallombrosa, a forest in the Tuscan Apennines. When the first Italian forestry institute was founded there in 1861, Italy had only 2 million hectares of forest. Today, that number has grown to over 11 million hectares. In the episode, Giulio demonstrates how, through the Chloris platform, we can monitor forest loss and gain across the globe. Explore global carbon dynamics on our free-to-access Chloris Platform and delve into the Vallombrosa Forest in our free showcase section: https://lnkd.in/dGF_xKrT #forests #carbon #spacetech

Happy to start the week by announcing we are new proud members of IETA! IETA (International Emissions Trading Association) is a non-profit business group championing the power of high integrity markets to reach net-zero targets. We look forward to collaborating with member companies and "making net-zero possible" through ambition and cooperation. 🗽 This fall, we will also be at IETA's North America Climate Summit (September 24-26) during #NYCW2024. If you plan on being in the city, let's connect at NACS! #netzero #naturepositive #NACS2024

A recent study led by Ovidiu Csillik, used data from several repeated high-resolution airborne laser scanning missions across Brazil’s Arc of Deforestation to quantify the impacts of human activities and natural disturbances on forest carbon loss. The two main key findings of the paper? 1️⃣ In the southern Brazilian Amazon, forest degradation releases 5 times more carbon than deforestation 2️⃣ Indigenous territories and protected areas are effective in preventing anthropogenic degradation At Chloris, we fully support these conclusions and emphasize the importance of monitoring all carbon gains and losses, including those from degradation and disturbances. Monitoring forest carbon changes beyond deforestation, at scale, with operational resolution, over long time series, and in a cost-effective way is essential for climate finance and policy.
