<big>'''Intro/[https://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/User:Siterunner GreenPolicy360 Siterunner]:'''</big> 

For some 40+ years your GreenPolicy360 siterunner has worked in many varied ways to get the word out on the crucial importance of environmental security. From the [https://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/Earth_Day_Memories_on_the_50th_Anniversary first Earth Day] to [https://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/File:1977_from_the_Office_of_Science_and_Technology_Policy.jpg the first warning] from the new committee of science with the push from [https://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/George_E._Brown_Jr Congressman George E. Brown], through various career incarnations I have attempted to 'work the message', gathering (curating as it's now called) the best science and writing up and sharing key strategies and goals even against the odds. The risks we have identified and shared have now turned into a crisis. 

Perhaps it is human nature to be overwhelmed, or what my teacher Hannah Arendt described in the 'Human Condition' as the realms of labor, work, and action. Many  choose to go along to get along, and not act when the threats grow extreme, even existential. But to those who take the chance to make a difference and stand up and do your best to make changes that change the world for the better, I salute you for your bravery.

Now comes another warning from the international science community. This warning is dire. The latest news looms to such an extent as to be overwhelming, depressing and potentially driving us toward resignation and inaction, but it should not prevent us from action as [https://www.amazon.com/New-Climate-War-Fight-Planet/dp/B08QV8KSGH/ref=tmm_aud_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=#customerReviews Michael E. Mann's latest book, 'The Fight to Take Back Our Planet'] argues persuasively.''

[https://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/File:Michael_E_Mann_--_act_with_hope_not_fear.jpg '''Act with hope and not fear'''.] Earth is in our hands. Take in the news, consider the science, then in your own way, act. 

Act to make a positive difference. Don't give up, never give up.

''Climate change will fundamentally reshape life on Earth in the coming decades, even if humans can tame planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions, according to a landmark draft report from the UN's climate science advisors obtained by AFP.''

''Species extinction, more widespread disease, unliveable heat, ecosystem collapse, cities menaced by rising seas—these and other devastating climate impacts are accelerating and bound to become painfully obvious before a child born today turns 30.''

''The choices societies make now will determine whether our species thrives or simply survives as the 21st century unfolds, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) says in a draft report seen exclusively by AFP.''

''But dangerous thresholds are closer than once thought, and dire consequences stemming from decades of unbridled carbon pollution are unavoidable in the short term.''

''Species extinction, more widespread disease, unliveable heat, ecosystem collapse, cities menaced by rising seas - these and other devastating climate impacts are accelerating and bound to become painfully obvious before a child born today turns 30.''

''"The worst is yet to come, affecting our children's and grandchildren's lives much more than our own," the report says.''

''By far the most comprehensive catalogue ever assembled of how climate change is upending our world, the report reads like a 4,000-page indictment of humanity's stewardship of the planet.''

''But the document, designed to influence critical policy decisions, is not scheduled for release until February 2022 - too late for crunch UN summits this year on climate, biodiversity and food systems...''

''Technological change and market forces are making clean energy competitive with dirty fossil and nuclear energy, helped along by small tax credits (which are nonetheless dwarfed by much larger fossil fuel and nuclear subsidies).''

''Coal-fired power generation capacity has decreased, nuclear capacity has stagnated, and even natural gas capacity has barely ticked upward — while solar and wind capacity have grown by double digits. Plus, according to Perry's own department, wind and solar now employ hundreds of thousands more Americans than older industries like coal.''

''Together with impressive advances in energy storage and smart grid technology, those trends are reducing the need for a large baseload capacity by making it possible to store renewable energy and distribute it wherever it's needed.''

''Industry experts said over the past five years the number of operational satellites has jumped 40%, and nearly 1,400 now orbit the Earth.''

''This number could more than double over the next five years as satellites become smaller, lighter and more affordable.''

'''''Satellites collecting data and monitoring the Earth''''' 

''Applications are far reaching - from tracking plant health through chlorophyll to gauging the impact of natural disasters and the surveillance of illegal logging.''

''India recently participated in the launch of 104 satellites — 101 of them for foreign companies and agencies - in a single mission as part of its strategic bid for a bigger share of the $300 billion global space industry.

''Experts at the Seattle summit said the multiple launch, described as a world record by its space agency, was also significant because 88 were shoebox-sized Dove satellites launched by [https://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/Planet_Labs_Doves_Fly Planet], a San Francisco-based private satellite operator founded by former NASA scientists.''

''The constellation of small satellites will, once settled into orbit in six months' time, will photograph the entire Earth every day.''

''"Satellite imagery might be one of the most powerful and unbiased tools to tell people what is going on with the planet", explains Albert Lin, Research Scientist at the University of California, San Diego.''

''The key, he said, lay in finding ways to translate enormous amounts of information into something that can be understood by everyone.''

''This means finding ways of sorting and interlinking the trillions of bits of data sent to Earth and re-construct them into readable, digital and sometimes 3D models.''

''In some cases, data can be analyzed with the help of communities of "citizen scientists sitting alone at their computers all over the world."''

''"This is a wake-up call that satellite imagery is not just about questions and insights but also about engaging the entire planet in observing the planet, together."''

<big>'''''Actions to Protect Earth Science/Climate Data'''''</big>

'''''Records Requests Seek to Preserve Hundreds of Data Sets on Wildlife, Oil Industry, Climate Change, Sea-level Rise'''''

''WASHINGTON — The Center for Biological Diversity, along with noted conservation biologist Stuart Pimm and the Center for Media and Democracy, launched an effort today to prevent hundreds of environmental data sets on government websites from being removed by the Trump administration.''

''To preserve or resurrect what has already been removed by the administration, the centers and Dr. Pimm submitted three separate Freedom of Information Act requests for data sets to eight federal agencies: the Army Corps of Engineers, the Council on Environmental Quality, the Environmental Protection Agency, NASA and the departments of agriculture, commerce, energy and interior.'' 

''Under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), when federal agencies receive requests for the same records three or more times, they must make the records freely available to the public on their websites, a rule known as “the Beetlejuice provision.”''

''“By removing or hiding hundreds of data sets [http://www.biologicaldiversity.org/campaigns/open_government/pdfs/2017_03_23_Center_PIMM_DMD_Compiled_Datasets_FOIA.pdf [PDF]] containing critical information about the climate, wildlife and the health of our oceans, Trump and his cronies are blatantly trying to conceal the truth from the American people,” said Amy Atwood, a senior attorney at the Center for Biological Diversity. “Thankfully our scientists have the Freedom of Information Act to keep this vital information in the light of day.”''

''Today’s legal requests seek hundreds of data sets on energy usage, renewables, oil and gas projections, coal reserves, climate data, sea-level rise, human population, environmental justice and the status of scores of endangered and threatened species and other wildlife. More specifically, they seek information relating to conservation of aquatic systems, residential energy consumption and Endangered Species Act “Section 7” consultations, a step taken by federal agencies to avoid jeopardizing listed species.''

''Media outlets have reported on the loss and vulnerability of federal data relating to some of today’s most pressing environmental issues, pointing out the disappearance of data sets from agency websites under the Trump administration and documenting scientists’ efforts to save them.'' 

''“The U.S. government produces and maintains some of the most important information that scientists use in their research,” said Dr. Stuart Pimm, a Duke University professor and research scientist — and a founder of conservation biology — and the second requester of data. “Along with the Herculean efforts of volunteer scientists around the country, I’m doing what I can to protect this information because it’s critical these data remain available to academic institutions for scientists and future generations.”''

:'''Astronauts Sam Cristoforetti, Ron Garan, and "Overview Effect"'''


:[[File:Astro Sam w new espresso machine's first cuppa java May2015.png]]


Yes, to Italian "Astro Sam" and her [http://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/HelloEarth #HelloEarth views and messages] to us here on the home Planet.

And we greatly appreciate the newest from Astronaut Ron Garan as his interactive project [http://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/Orbital_Perspective '''"Orbital Perspective"'''] is published this week. Some 45 years ago, near the end of December 1968 and beginning of an auspicious 1969, we began seeing the Apollo 8 mission's first-ever images of our "whole earth". It's not overstating to say - these images from above changed everything. These pictures from space looking back at Earth, taken as Apollo circled around the moon, carried realizations with the images -- that together we are [http://www.planetcitizen.org planet citizens]. 


[[File:Apollo Earth 350x350.jpg]]  


We welcomed a perspective that no human had ever had. 

January 1969 was an eye-opener as the images of Earth were broadcast. We celebrated the images and our place in the cosmos even as we, the planet and our populations, were in the midst of violent war and troubled times.

Today, the famous [http://www.greenpolicy360.net/mw/images/Earthrise_EL-2001-00365h_NASA_Apollo_8_1968.jpg '''Earthrise'''] photo rekindles our memory, and the serendipity of how the Apollo 8 crew was lucky that day as, looking out their window, the Earth suddenly came into view. There was no "mission plan" to take Earth photos and the astronauts scrambled to get to a camera, put in film and shoot a few frames. They were in awe, they said, and fortune was in play that day. There we were, us, Earth. In the Earthrise images our space traveling planet citizens captured  a realization of our wholeness, connectedness, and our shared future as together we spin thru space. 

Later, the Apollo 17 mission, as the program was coming to its end, brought home the "Blue Marble" photograph, the [http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2011/04/the-blue-marble-shot-our-first-complete-photograph-of-earth/237167/ '''first complete 360° image of our planet'''], a [http://grin.hq.nasa.gov/IMAGES/LARGE/GPN-2000-001138.jpg '''high-res Earth'''] described as the [http://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/File:Blue_Marble_photo_-_Apollo_17.jpg '''most reproduced photo in history''']. It is the first photograph taken of the whole round Earth and still is only one of the whole earth ever snapped by a human being. Of the two living astronauts, Cernan and Schmitt, who believe they were the photographer who took the photo, here is how one describes his view.... Whichever astronaut of the three aboard Apollo 17 who snapped the picture, what is most memorable is Earth360:

''"You have to literally just pinch yourself and ask yourself the question, silently: Do you know where you are at this point in time and space, and in reality and in existence, when you can look out the window and you're looking at the most beautiful star in the heavens -- the most beautiful because it's the one we understand and we know, it's home, it's people, family, love, life -- and besides that it is beautiful. You can see from pole to pole and across oceans and continents and you can watch it turn and there's no strings holding it up, and it's moving in a blackness that is almost beyond conception."''


[[File:Blue Marble photo - Apollo 17.jpg]]


The sense of awe, an Earth point of view, has continued to be communicated by astronauts since and has continued to be shared, more recently with high tech ways to see and experience our Earth as planetary citizens as we see from [http://www.greenpolicy360.net/mw/images/From_AstroTerry_January2015.png '''the International Space Station''']. The term [http://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/Overview_Effect '''"Overview Effect"'''] begins to share the experience.

We celebrate our [http://www.planetcitizens.org Planet Citizens] who bring home messages how we can collaborate to make a difference, to make the world a better place. 

Ron Garan: ''"You don’t need to be an astronaut to have the orbital perspective"...''

''"When we look down at the earth from space, we see this amazing, indescribably beautiful planet. It looks like a living, breathing organism. But it also, at the same time, looks extremely fragile... Anybody else who's ever gone to space says the same thing because it really is striking and it's really sobering to see this paper-thin layer and to realize that that little paper-thin layer is all that protects every living thing on Earth from death, basically. From the harshness of space."''

''"The Goal is to bring people along on our space missions not as spectators but as fellow crew mates." -- http://www.rongaran.com/gallery/''

''"It is truly moving to look at Earth from space. And when we do – we also have the privilege of sharing this orbital perspective with people back on our planet. We are all riding through the universe together on this spaceship we call Earth, we are all interconnected, we are all in this together. We are all family."''

''August 3, 2016 -- This (year), on current trends, will be the hottest year ever measured. The previous record was set in 2015; the one before in 2014. Fifteen of the 16 warmest years have occurred in the 21st century. Each of the past 14 months has beaten the global monthly temperature record. But you can still hear people repeating the old claim, first proposed by fossil fuel lobbyists, that global warming stopped in 1998. Arctic sea ice covered a smaller area last winter than in any winter since records began...'' 

''If you blinked you would have missed the reports, but perhaps the most striking aspect of the Democratic platform (the party’s manifesto) approved in Philadelphia last week was its position on climate change. Hillary Clinton’s campaign now promises a national and global mobilisation “on a scale not seen since World War II”. She will seek to renegotiate trade deals to protect the living world, to stop oil drilling in the Arctic and Atlantic, and to ensure the US is “running entirely on clean energy by mid-century”.''

''There are some crashing contradictions in the platform. To judge by one bizarre paragraph, the Democrats believe they can solve climate change by expanding roads and airports. It boasts about record sales in the car industry and promises to cut “red tape”, which is the term used by corporate lobbyists for the public protections they hate. But where it is good it is very good, reflecting the influence of Bernie Sanders and the nominees he proposed to the drafting committee.''

''Donald Trump, on the other hand – well, what did you expect? Climate change is a “con-job” and a “hoax” that was “created by and for the Chinese in order to make US manufacturing non-competitive”.''

''His manifesto reads like a love letter to the coal industry. Coal, it says, “is an abundant, clean, affordable, reliable domestic energy resource”. He will defend the industry by rejecting the Paris agreement, stopping funds for the UN’s climate change work, ditching President Obama’s clean power plan and forbidding the Environmental Protection Agency from regulating carbon dioxide.''

As we have been recalling the history, '''we haven't had returned to us a 'whole earth' image since 1972'''. Today, the Associated Press reports Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Florida, pointing out from Washington that there hasn't been a "full, sunlit picture of the Earth since [http://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/Apollo_17 '''Apollo 17'''] in 1972 - NASA's last manned moon-landing mission". Subsequent images "have been stitched together", the Senator explained, for composite shots. The Florida Senator has an exceptional point of view re: this amazing fact, as he was an astronaut who flew on the Space Shuttle from Florida's "Space Coast". In January 1986, Nelson spent six days orbiting Earth as a payload specialist aboard space shuttle Columbia. His NASA bio adds "The experience gave him a new perspective on the Earth’s fragile environment and a greater appreciation of the importance of our nation’s space exploration program."

The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_Space_Climate_Observatory DSCOVR satellite] launches into deep orbit with multiple missions -- to monitor space weather and, due to the satellite's orbital distance from Earth (1 mil miles), DSCOVR will be sending back daily images of the whole earth via its EPIC image-taking system and via its NISTAR system [http://www.greenpolicy360.net/mw/images/You_can_manage_only_what_you_can_measure_Dr_David_Crisp%2C_OCO-2%2C_June_2014_m.jpg measuring earth's earth's temperature, our "radiation balance" ("albedo").] 

 

'''''"DSCOVR will be beaming back a steady stream of images of our home planet from space... with the images expected to be available online the next day."''''' 

'''''"They'll be posted on a website for the public to see," said Steven Clarke, director of NASA's Joint Agency Satellite Division. "I think it will be an inspiration for people to see the sunlit disk of the Earth."'''''



''"Most impressive from DSCOVR will be the images of us, Planet Earth 360°. To see ‪and to experience #‎Earth360‬ daily, it's going to be a spectacular re-reminder of our place in the cosmos..." - Steven Schmidt'' ‪

''Scientists will soon get a steady stream of data about how both the Earth and the Sun are doing, for years to come.''

'''''The livestream of our planet will inform, immerse and inspire. Online the images from DSCOVR and EPIC will deliver majestic new visions of our home planet.''''' 



''For many Earth scientists, the centerpiece of the satellite is the National Institute of Standards Advanced Radiometer, or '''NISTAR''', named for the Maryland-based government laboratory that designed it. The apparatus was built to shed light on Earth’s “radiation balance”—the radiation we receive from our sun minus the radiation we reflect back into space. The difference is retained by our planet as heat, and is calculated by measuring Earth’s reflectivity, called the albedo. Data showing whether Earth’s albedo is decreasing, meaning the atmosphere is retaining more heat because of greenhouse gases or other reasons, could be a significant piece of the climate puzzle.

''What is revolutionary isn’t the basic technology for tracking albedo — it is measuring it from the million-mile perspective out at L1. Most satellites circle the planet at about one-thousandth of that distance, so their readings encompass only a small slice of land, a view that shifts rapidly as they circle the planet every two hours or so. Different climate zones — ice caps, deserts, tropical forests—have different reflectivities, independent of the atmosphere, which needs to be factored in to the overall measurement; it’s virtually impossible to create a whole-Earth portrait from a deck of low-orbit snapshots. “By the time you stitch together all the separate bits of data, the margin of error is too large to be useful,” [http://www.nasa.gov/about/highlights/asrar_bio.html Dr. Asrar] at NASA says.'' 

''DSCOVR is "like having a thermometer for the whole planet.” It’s not a perfect gauge, NASA’s '''Dr. Adam Szabo''' cautions. “Earth is… a sphere that reflects light in all directions. So a measurement from any one point will not be the final word. But it will still be very important for the conversation about climate change.”''

SJS/GreenPolicy360 Siterunner:

In the 1960s in the US and globally a modern environmental movement was being created as first-ever visions of Planet Earth were sent from Apollo missions. The images of the Whole Earth in space changed perceptions in every nation. A realization of a common, shared home -- and responsibility to care for our home -- was born.

Soon political leaders stepped up, both looking backward and forward. A new field of science, earth science, began to spring up. In the US Congress, leaders like George Brown were saying no to war in Vietnam and Asia, and the Mideast, and no to nuclear weapons, while saying yes to a first generation of NASA earth science missions.

This was called 'Big Science' by some and 'its a critical mission' by others.

Rep. George E. Brown was out in front.

From the mid 1960s until his death in 1999, his work in Congress was instrumental in proposing, shaping, and protecting Big Science - Earth Science.

A realization that "'''Security is indivisible'''" is on the horizon and security definitions are changing as a result of the dynamics of interactive networks.

The sharing of information is creating a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linked:_The_New_Science_of_Networks '''new science of networking''']. Information is being looked at as never before and '''#earthscience''' data is now being collected by networked computers across an interconnected world. In historic ways, open data is being publicly distributed far beyond the restrictive policies of previous times and closed-loop systems. 

Today #earthsciences are at the cusp of a rich new world of information. As we share these new realizations, images, data, experiences and understandings, we can be certain of a new, growing awareness of our planet and our 'citizenship' together.  

Even now, we have inklings of what is coming. Let's look at one called [http://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/OCO-2 '''OCO-2''']. With the launch of OCO-2, a "game changer", in the summer of 2014, the data of #Earth360 will grow in unprecedented ways as this first orbiting observatory of global warming conditions takes to space and begins to report home - [https://twitter.com/IamOCO2 '''I am OCO-2''']

Although the '''Orbiting Carbon Observatory''' is just the beginning, the future of #earthscience from space is here as we see in new ways and observe our environment with new information never before accessible. Space-imaging is opening up amazing views, with 3D and big-screens and home theaters. Coming soon will be views beyond IMAX as companies like Virgin and SpaceX carry citizen travelers into orbit. Educational and scientific information about our communities is being shared, and linked to, and distributed around the Net. From space, the earth is borderless and with vision of the planet and common-good #biosphere and #ecosystem comes responsibility for our shared security.

On to first steps...

The term [https://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/New_Space "New Space"] and [https://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/Democratization_of_Space "Democratization of Space"] have come to represent a first generation of earth research and study from space by start up companies designing, building and launching small, mini- and micro-satellites. 

New visions of Earth and new players are challenging the old system of governments that spend billions to explore, commercialize and militarize space. 

Barriers to entry are being broken and [http://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/Micro-satellites young companies are launching flocks of satellite birds into space]. Earth monitoring is going planetary and a next generation is at the forefront pushing to address threats to the environment.

Let's go there to this new world, not a "new world order" but a world that is being connected and is sharing, linking and seeing the bigger picture. The way we observe and 'feel' about our planet is changing in one generation. 

Beginning with the first [http://www.greenpolicy360.net/mw/images/Whole_Earth_1972_Apollo_17.jpg Whole Earth] pictures relayed from the Apollo voyages to the Moon, we have for the first time in history experienced a vision of our planet from afar -- [http://www.greenpolicy360.net/mw/images/3D_Overview.jpg we are, we realize, a 'blue' oasis in space].

Now, nearly five decades after the original awe-inspiring [https://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/File:Apollo.jpg Earthrise images from Apollo 8] were revealed, we find everyday citizens in every nation realizing our commonalities. 

The [http://www.greenpolicy360.net/mw/images/Apollo.jpg Apollo mission] helped us open our eyes and today we are seeing our planet and our place in the universe in new light, with new missions and and new possibilities to secure our environment for ages to come.
