In Brief:
In addition to collecting data on humanity s effect on our planet, NASA is working toward becoming more sustainable.
NASA is responsible for collecting much of the data that people use to explain humanity’s environmental impact on Earth, from documenting climate change and its impacts on ice, sea level, and weather patterns, to monitoring the health of forests and the movement of fresh water.
But NASA doesn’t just report the data. It also acts on it.
NASA facilities across the United States are each working toward becoming more sustainable workplaces. Across 47 million square feet (4.3 million square meters) and 5,000 buildings, NASA works to fulfill its mission of revealing the unknown while lessening its demand on the planet’s resources.
