[MAFD] MAPPING ACTIVE FIRE DATA
Our planet’s sustainability is under serious threat. As the 21st century progresses, new networks and interconnections are being reinforced which impact the relationships we humans impose on our most immediate surroundings, the environment. Among the risks which call into question the fragile balance of our ecosystem and directly influence climate change are: the increasing greenhouse effect due to excess carbon dioxide emissions (CO2 ); destruction of the ozone layer; loss of forest cover; and erosion, desertification and devastation of the rain forest. Quantifying the impact of these indicators by means of data helps us to understand and be able to devise methods of environmental management.
