How Satellites Reveal the Truth About Sea Level Rise and Melting Glaciers

Sea level rise is accelerating due to climate change, but how do satellites help us track this crisis and what can be done? Discover the vital data shaping our planet’s future. In this video, we explore how rising sea levels - driven by ocean warming, melting polar ice, and vanishing glaciers - are one of the most urgent consequences of the climate crisis. Learn how cutting-edge satellites like NOAA’s GOES-T and the Sentinel-6 mission are providing continuous, global measurements of sea level, wave height, and wind speed. These advanced tools are essential for climate scientists and modelers, enabling accurate predictions and informing crucial policy decisions. We’ll explain how satellites gather climate data from space, validate findings with ground measurements, and produce long-term cli
