TCCON Philippines: A Small Nation Rises Up To The Challenge of Climate Change
In the fight to save the planet, Scientists and Entrepreneurs from the Philippines, Japan, and Australia team up to ameliorate the next biggest threat to mankind β Climate Change. But in order to fight the threat, the team must first understand it.
Total Carbon Column Observing Network (TCCON) is a network dedicated to the measurement of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Methane (CH4) in the atmosphere β the two major man-made greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming. There are already more than 20 TCCON stations all over the world, but none in Southeast Asia, where a significant data gap exists for better global understanding of the processes concerning Climate Change.
This is a documentary film with messages about Climate Change, Environmental Awareness, and Global Warming. The messages are delivered through documenting the TCCON Philippines project and the people involved.
TCCON Instruments have been provided from the Japanese GOSAT project. The GOSAT-2 project is a joint project among Japanese MOE, JAXA, and NIES.
