IMPACT SPOTLIGHT
We can’t do this work alone, and we shouldn’t. Our work aims to empower a diverse network of changemakers, each playing a crucial role in driving meaningful impact:
- Advocates use SkyTruth’s work to increase pressure on policymakers to hold polluters accountable, identify and prioritize areas for additional protections, investments, and enforcement interventions, advance market-based campaigns, and inform the public of hidden environmental problems.
- Journalists use SkyTruth’s work to promote transparency and enhance understanding of complex environmental incidents and issues, leading to greater awareness and pressure for change to combat the interconnected crises of climate disruption and biodiversity loss.
- Policymakers use SkyTruth’s data to strengthen enforcement, develop more effective environmental policies, and quantify progress.
- Scientists and researchers leverage SkyTruth’s diverse datasets to improve understanding of the previously hidden consequences of industrial activities affecting our lands, ocean, and climate.
- Data and insight providers integrate SkyTruth’s work into their platforms, analyses, and products, amplifying SkyTruth’s reach and impact through their audiences and campaigns.
Through collaborating with this wide network of stakeholders, SkyTruth compels environmental violators and polluters to realize they are being watched, prompting them to adopt more responsible practices.
