The UK government and Google are starting a new online project that may help more and more people learning about climate change.

Known as “Climate Change in Our World”, this tool uses information from the Met Office’s Hadley Centre and the BAS (British Antarctic Survey). It may provide two new layers, or animated information to all users of Google Earth.
The tool was launched at the Google Zeitgeist conference.
“I think this will be a huge tool for making everybody aware of the huge climate change of our time,” prime minister Gordon Brown has told.
As it’s known for now one animation must use world-leading climate-science capabilities from the Hadley Centre to show global temperatures throughout the next 100 years under projections of greenhouse-gas emissions, along with reports of how people are already being affected by changing weather patterns or soon might be.

One of the few that may confirm You how important is our mission.
The Centers for Environmental and Climatic Interaction (CECI) is a non-profit partnership among government, academia and industry that provides trusted climate change information and analysis to policymakers, business leaders and the public.
Located in Asheville, North Carolina, home of NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center, CECI provides innovative education strategies, natural resource impact analysis, visualization technologies and other tools for making crucial decisions.
To explore how we can collaborate with or assist you, please contact Ron Gordon, CECI’s Program Manager, at 828-231-0679, or info@climatealive.org.

ERC Broadband announced today that it has signed an agreement with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) to provide broadband services to NCDC. NCDC, based in Asheville, provides NOAA’s climate data to millions of people. ERC Broadband is a vital partner in NCDC’s mission to acquire and deliver these data. The new agreement formalizes the partnership between NOAA/NCDC and ERC Broadband and underscores how ERC Broadband is helping Asheville build its role and reputation in the national climate services community.
Working with public, private and non-profit concerns, ERC Broadband’s goals are to grow the regional technical infrastructure and bring next generation Internet and advanced technology to the region. By accomplishing its goals, ERC Broadband is improving the overall quality of life in the area. ERC Broadband is celebrating its fifth anniversary this month.

“The new agreement stems from recognition that ERC Broadband is enhancing the national presence of NOAA’s NCDC, and that of the National Weather Service as well,” said Hunter Goosmann, General Manager of ERC Broadband. “ERC Broadband is creating awareness of and interest in climate data, and we are working with NCDC to establish and support the growth of its programs throughout the United States.”
