The Impact of Falling Satellites on Our Environment
Recent studies reveal that dying satellites can significantly affect our planet’s climate and ozone layer. As more satellites enter Earth’s atmosphere, their aluminium emissions become increasingly problematic. These emissions occur when satellites burn up upon re-entry, releasing harmful particles into the atmosphere. This situation raises concerns about the long-term implications for climate change and ozone depletion.
The rise in satellite numbers means that the emissions from these devices will likely increase. Scientists emphasize the urgent need to monitor and manage these emissions to protect our environment. With the growing reliance on satellites for communication and data collection, understanding their environmental impact is more crucial than ever.
