Since the middle of last century, satellites equipped with cameras and other measuring instruments have been circling the Earth to document any visible changes. With its <a href=\"link: climate.nasa.gov\/images-of-change\">\u201cImages of Change\u201d<\/a> project, NASA is now putting this footage online as a series of before and after images.<br \/>\nThe more than 200 images show change over periods ranging from decades to days, and serve to emphasize the fragility of the Earth. Whether the changes relate to natural disasters or the progress of civilization, hardly any of the images show the planet looking as it once did. But does change always have to be something negative? The following three examples provide some food for thought.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-hm5a1-f670a226864a4a2b95d06886f65808d2'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2><strong>Colorful activity on the Mekong River<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Off-hand, one might think that blue-green water is healthier than brown water. But, as the case of the Mekong River demonstrates, that is a misconception. This body of water, which stretches from China all the way to the southern coast of Laos, is Southeast Asia\u2019s lifeline and one of the longest rivers on the planet. Over time, the Mekong River has become blue-green and crystal-clear in places, which is the result of an interplay of different factors.<\/p>\n<p>The Mekong River Commission reports that the river is being loaded with increasingly fewer sediments along its entire length. This can be attributed to both ever-decreasing levels of precipitation and the large number of flow-reducing dams and hydroelectric power plants, which filter sediments out of the water. This also removes nutrients from the river, promoting the growth of algae and thereby killing fish. This initially affected just some of the arms of the river, but over time the entire Mekong River has turned blue-green.<\/p>\n<p>This example provides convincing proof that even sustainable energy sources such as hydropower can have drastic environmental repercussions if they do not undergo comprehensive and long-term planning.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-hm5a1-04a1b10d35550a643b98b6cb1ed0bc82'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>[ics-comparison-slider id=2]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>\u00a9 Images taken by the Operational Land Imager on Landsat 8.

The city so popular with tourists particularly for its striking skyline is today home to an estimated 23 million people. Even its land area of over 6,300 km\u00b2 is impressive. But it was not always like this.<\/p>\n<p>NASA images show that urbanization in 1984 significantly curtailed the area surrounding the Huangpu River. Looks can be deceptive, as even back then Shanghai is estimated to have had six million inhabitants. However, it is difficult to determine the exact figures due to the high percentage of migrant workers with precarious living arrangements. Over time, population growth has also led to urban expansion in Shanghai \u2013 and not just on the mainland.<\/p>\n<p>While the dramatic reduction in forests toward inland areas could be described as an almost normal trend, what is happening in coastal areas is astonishing. The coastal islands of Changxing and Hengsha have not only become more densely populated, but they have also been artificially enlarged, which is a major intervention into the region\u2019s geology and marine biology.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-hm5a1-04a1b10d35550a643b98b6cb1ed0bc82'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>[ics-comparison-slider id=4]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>\u00a9 Images taken by Landsat 5 and 8.

In 2018, a group of researchers at the University of Colorado estimated that sea levels could rise by 65 cm between now and 2100. More pessimistic projections even put the figure at around 1.5 m. It doesn\u2019t sound like much, but it would result in catastrophic flooding in many regions of the world or even inundate them completely, and this could produce millions of climate refugees.<\/p>\n<p>Looking at the NASA images, the greatest declines in ice levels can be seen not only on the large sheet of ice at the North Pole, but also between the numerous Canadian islands that stretch up to the Greenlandic coast.
