NASA, other agencies should join forces on climate change, says government-backed study

Three key agencies should join forces to track changes in the Earth’s temperature, according to a federally funded study on climate change released Friday.

NASA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the U.S. Geological Survey should implement “a coordinated approach for their space-based environmental observations to further advance Earth science and applications for the next decade,” according to a new study released by the National Academies of Sciences and funded by the three agencies.
