It's World space week, says Google....

Apparently World space week has just started - This is what it's about this year:

"This significant week of space celebration will highlight the critical role of satellites and space technology in monitoring environmental shifts and formulating strategies to mitigate the impacts of climate change.'

So, this "monitoring" of the earth by satellites is going to mitigate all the resource use and emissions produced in building and launching space technology, is it?

Yeah, space technology sounds exciting, but it's always been my opinion that problems like poverty and hunger need to be solved first. 

Plus, the earth and climate changed drastically many times before humans even appeared. Maybe it's a bit egotistical for people to think they can control a planet?

Just my thoughts. Happy to hear yours, but please be respectful to each other if views differ.

Thanks
