Earth watch center established in UK


An Earth watch center will be established in the UK in order to monitor earth's climate change, pollution variation, and natural disasters.

The center will be established in Oxfordshire at the Earth Observation Hub at Harwell with a budget of £5m.

“The Earth Observation Hub will help UK scientists make the most of the wealth of information we're collecting about our planet, in vital areas such as monitoring the effects of climate change, so we can respond quickly to natural disasters around the world,” said UK's Science Minister David Willetts said at the Farnborough Airshow on Thursday.
