That glaciers have lost 20% of their mass from 2000 to today, that by 2050, if climate change continues at this intensity, we expect that 30% of natural surfaces will be permanently changed, or that around 80% of the living world will be left without a habitat due to irreversible damage to the forest ecosystem - these are the messages we hear and take note of on a daily basis.
Climate change is a concept known to everyone, but the extent of this problem and the ways in which we can fight against it are often a mystery to us.
What are climate services?
Climate services include all information related to climate, climate variability, climate change and seasonal forecasts. They allow us to use climate data for informed decision-making, risk reduction, and exploitation of opportunities, all with the aim of better adaptation to climate change. Using climate data in an effective and timely manner is a key link for a green recovery and the creation of a climate-neutral Europe, as a response to the current situation caused by climate change. So it's time to look in the mirror – now is the time to become aware of our impact on climate change.
Where can I learn how to use climate data?
