  3. Climate change Climate on earth changes due to net reception of energy: Earth Energy Imbalance > 0 Decreasing trend Earth Energy Imbalance: temporary slowdown of earth’s heating likely due to Asian air pollution (aerosols)

  4. Weather forecast Eumetsat: Intergovernmental organisation for European meteorological satellites Current problem: Belgium has not yet confirmed its contribution to MSG and EPS program extension Cost 2021-2030: 6.7 Meuro
