Runaway #glacier loss has been my unwanted companion as I climb in the Andes. It not only makes climbing more dangerous, this rising imbalance in our alpine ecosystems has dire consequences to humans and wildlife. #ClimateAction Follow/share the thread ⬇️

How can space help us see the changes unfolding across Earth? Last Saturday at the #ArsElectronica Festival 2026 in Linz, Austria, @mboothp took audiences on a journey from satellite observations and climate data to protecting Earth from asteroid impacts during "Protect Our Planet and Climate" in Deep Space 8K at the Ars Electronica Center. The live Science Experience showed how space-based evidence can turn complex global change into something people can see, discuss and understand. Want to explore climate data for yourself?

The biodiversity crisis numbers: 60% decline in our lifetimes - how much more?
"We are losing biodiversity at a rate unparalleled in human history." Global wildlife populations have sunk over 60% since 1970. We are destroying ourselves and taking nature with us. Time to protect people and the planet. #ActOnClimate #climate #biodiversity #nature

Awesome capture by MTG-I1 🛰️ as nightfall and the moon’s shadow race each other over Europe.
Solar eclipse as seen from space! From its vantage point in space, the Meteosat Third Generation Imager satellite (MTG-I1) captured the Moon’s dark shadow as it passed over Earth’s surface – converging with the advancing twilight shadow as dusk fell over Europe. ➡️esa.int/ESA_Multimedia/Video… 📹ESA/Eumetsat #EuropeanSolarEclipse

Europe is facing an exceptional heatwave.
Are you feeling the heat too?🥵 A heatwave is driving temperatures far above average across much of Western Europe and the UK, with record May temperatures reported in several countries. This map shows land surface temperatures across Europe, using @CopernicusEU Sentinel-3 data from 26 May 2026. 🔗esa.int/ESA_Multimedia/Image…

Happy Earth Day! 🌎 🌍 🌏 To mark this special day, we’re tuning in to @sen, the world’s first continuous 4K video livestream from space. Sen’s cameras are hosted on our Columbus module of the International @Space_Station, with data delivered via the @AirbusSpace platform. Streaming in real time, it shows breathtaking views of our planet as the International Space Station passes over cities, oceans and deserts. Watch Earth from above, just like our astronaut @SophieAdenot does on the #εpsilon mission. 📹 Sen
