The image shows scattered droplets of liquid mercury on a reflective surface, with a larger mercury droplet in the foreground. The text overlay in bold white letters reads "UNDERSTANDING & CONTROLLING MERCURY TRADE IN LATIN AMERICA", followed by a subtitle "for a cleaner, healthier planet." The UN Environment Programme logo is placed in the top right corner.

176 metric tonnes of mercury could be kept out of the global market thanks to a new UNEP-backed project in Latin America.

The Biomass mission, equipped with an innovative P-band synthetic aperture radar, is set to provide vital data on the health and changes of our forests. This mission will deepen our understanding of the critical role forests play in the carbon cycle, which is essential for tackling climate change.

#CallForInterest: Journalists are invited to express their interest in attending a media event at Europe's Spaceport in French Guiana, for the launch of ESA’s Biomass satellite. Please apply via ESA’s media accreditation page by Friday 14 March 2025, 15:00 CET👇

The image shows a close-up of a green leaf with detailed veins. On the right side, digital circuit lines are overlaid, symbolizing technology. The text reads “Artificial Intelligence end-to-end” and “Assessing the environmental impact of the full AI lifecycle.” The UN Environment Programme logo is in the top right corner.

Emerging tech like Artificial Intelligence impact the environment through mining, emissions, water use, and e-waste. Yet, these effects are still under-researched.

The image shows in light blue the course of the São Francisco river in northern Bahia, Brazil, where it forms the extensive Sobradinho Reservoir. A combination of sediment, decomposing plants and the presence of algae and microorganisms give the water its bright hue. This false-colour image highlights vegetation in red and helps us better distinguish between areas with vegetation and areas without. Cities, roads and agricultural fields appear in different shades of brown.

📷 This week's #EarthFromSpace is a #Copernicus Sentinel-2 image of the São Francisco river in Brazil 💧🇧🇷 The false-colour image also shows the Sobradinho Reservoir, one of the largest artificial lakes in the world.
