BEYOND THEMATIC AREAS

Agriculture

Agriculture monitoring, for the purposes of food security, control of the implementation of sustainable agriculture policies and the improvement of the overall agricultural productivity.

Disasters

The rapid changes in climate over the last decades, together with the explosion of human population, have shaped the context for a fragile biosphere, prone to natural and manmade disasters that result in massive flows of environmental immigrants.

Climate

Understanding the Earth system, its weather, climate, atmosphere, and natural/human-induced hazards is crucial to protecting the global environment, reducing disaster losses, and achieving sustainable development

Energy

The EU revised Renewable Energy Directive establishes an overall policy for the production and promotion of energy from renewable sources in the EU.
