TED: Let's launch a satellite to track a threatening greenhouse gas | Fred Krupp

Fred, an environmentalist, shares his vision to combat climate change by focusing on methane, a potent greenhouse gas. He highlights the role of MethaneSAT, a satellite designed to measure global methane emissions with precision. By providing transparent data, the initiative aims to empower companies, citizens, and governments to take action, with a goal to reduce methane emissions by 45% by 2025. This effort is supported by the Audacious Project, promising significant near-term impact on global warming.
