EU Space and the Arctic

Polar regions are faced with emerging challenges.

Climate change is affecting the entire globe, but it’s especially pronounced at the poles.

Weather anomalies bring about new challenges for maritime operators but also pose threats to the local communities and the ecosystem.

With an integrated EU Space Programme in place, Europe has the capacity to better understand the challenges the Arctic Circle is confronted with, shape new mitigating policies and develop the necessary tools to fight Climate Change.
