Climate Curious How space science is uplifting farmers on the ground
"When people's lives are better and easier, they will not need to sell charcoal or cut down trees to feed their family," says food security specialist at the University of Maryland and NASA Harvest, Catherine Nakalembe. Catherine joins Climate Curious’s Maryam Pasha to share how satellite technology is used to monitor and predict agricultural conditions, including understanding subsurface water levels, creating detailed maps of crop types and health, ultimately giving people on the front lines of the climate crisis the information they need to adapt. Recorded live at TED 2025.
