CNES

CNES logo

CNES (Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales) is the government agency responsible for shaping France’s space policy and implementing it in Europe. Its task is to conceive and orbit satellites, invent the space systems of the future and nurture new services to assist us in our daily lives.

Through its various space missions and its research activities, CNES is helping to combat climate change. Whether it is a question of the evolution in the height of the oceans, monitoring of the chemical make-up of the atmosphere or the analysis of the terrestrial biomass, satellite data plays a crucial role in our ability to better understand the evolution in the climate and the extent of its impact.

Sharing the same desire to rally together scientific knowledge in a bid to better understand and combat climate change, Energy Observer and the CNES are joining forces to convey a message of hope to the general public about mankind’s ability to come up with more sustainable ways of life.
