This paper popped up for me today, some pretty crazy figures: only 3.8% of global climate research money is spent on African topics, and only 14.5% of this goes to African institutions. Africa is about 20% of the world's population... tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.108…

Here is an app to inspect EU floods thanks to @esa #Sentinel1 and @Google #EarthEngine. The app allows inspecting images from the last two years by clicking on the map ... the extent of floods is huge: gena.users.earthengine.app/view/flood-eu
