🌊 Why launch another sea-level satellite? To build resilience, we need to know how sea level is changing, and why.
Satellites such as #Copernicus Sentinel-6B, set to launch on 17 November, are helping us uncover what’s driving sea-level change.

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders?
Food systems are the #2 contributor to climate change, the #1 driver of deforestation, the #1 driver of biodiversity loss on land, and the #1 user of freshwater.
(It follows that food systems contain many solutions to these problems.)

Can’t believe this #mentorship cohort batch is set to wrap up this month! Two years ago, I joined the @geospatialwomen.bsky.social Mentorship Team as a Public Outreach Co-Lead during the time that I was looking for inspiration and creative outlet. Well, I found both and more! 💜
