In a world increasingly grappling with the immediate effects of climate change, the European Union's Copernicus programme has played a crucial role in climate policy and the development of climate action. The latest Copernicus report records a new record daily global average temperature of 17.16°C in July 2024.

Europe has already felt the effects of climate change, from floods to heatwaves. These events have been documented and analysed using the Copernicus programme's satellites. The information is crucial for developing strategies to adapt to climate change and mitigate its effects. The importance of the Copernicus programme lies not only in the collection of data, but also in the analysis and interpretation of this information to enable well-founded political decisions.

The Copernicus programme is therefore an indispensable tool for climate policy and the implementation of climate protection measures. It provides the scientific basis needed to respond to climate change and ensure a sustainable future for generations to come.
