Can a billion maps help save the planet?

Raging wildfires, food scarcity, and rising sea levels make clear that our current trajectory is unsustainable. Can technology help us change course? Carbon capture, alternative energy, and smart grids are reasons for hope. But one of the most important technologies needed to create a sustainable future-digital mapping-is also making a major difference, everywhere, every day.

Hello I'm majoring in remote sensing but i'd like to know what softwares should i learn ? Should i learn gis sogtwares ? because I'm student remote sensing

[@BigWaterFrog]

quick answer: yes of course, we wouldn’t even have figured out that the earth needs to be saved without using maps. We can figure out how to save it with maps! #Make Mapping More Common
