“Allowing earth’s forests to thrive and do their job of carbon sequestration is essential to reducing the threat of climate change. Technology offers hope to the greenhouse phenomenon caused by industrial society. One such technology is ESRI’s ArcGIS, which offers scientists, decision makers, and policy implementers a critical tool for obtaining information they need to heal our planet. GIS allows temporal climate data to be visualized, contrasted, and forecasted. Use ArcGIS to study current land use, land-use change, and what-if scenarios for responsible planning.”
