    Desertification is a type of degradation of land in which the land becomes more arid. Desertification is a direct result of global warming, and approximately 12 million hectares of productive land becomes barren due to desertification annually. Remote sensing technology can be used to measure the extent of desertification. Could you ever thought that in order to fix that stuff scientists start to use satellite technology which helps scientists observe the land?

    I think that scienctists already organized small satellites lauches with purposes to controll situation not only around our planet but also at other locations in space. Humankind with its developing technologies becomes more concious about its own future. Space companies do their best to solve global warming problems which leads to desertification, floods and other climate changes caused by it.

    Yeah, you are right. Actually, the usage of microsatellites became very significant in terms of the environmental preservation campaign. I like such the approach to the problem and I like the mission these microsats do. I was staggered that there is a special type of microsats that can track rare species of animals in order to prevent them from being killed by poachers.
