The top slot celebrates space pioneers, including GHGSat, SpaceX, and Rocket Lab
MONTREAL, QC / ACCESSWIRE / September 26, 2024 / GHGSat, the global leader in high-resolution satellite monitoring of greenhouse gas emissions, has joined SpaceX and Rocket Lab to share the top slot of Fortune's 10th annual Change the World list. This prestigious recognition honors the impact of GHGSat's cutting-edge satellite constellation, which has enabled organizations around the world to realize significant greenhouse gas emissions reductions.
Fortune's Change the World list celebrates companies that drive significant positive change by addressing societal challenges at the core of their business models. Finalists are selected based on their innovative business strategies that positively impact the world's most pressing social or environmental issues.
Founded in 2011, GHGSat pioneered high-resolution satellite emissions monitoring technology, and its satellite constellation is now capable of tracking greenhouse gas emissions down to the individual facility level at an unmatched near-daily frequency. Today, GHGSat serves as a trusted partner for corporations, governments, and regulators, arming decision-makers with data to both take rapid action on greenhouse gas emissions immediately and design effective long-term mitigation strategies.
"GHGSat's inclusion in Fortune's Change the World list is a testament to the unique ability of GHGSat's data and insights to drive change, by unearthing the detailed picture of emissions sources that was previously derived from calculations and estimates. This is a foundational step in the race to net zero emissions, and we are setting the pace alongside our government and industry partners," said Stephane Germain, CEO of GHGSat. "Looking forward, our team remains dedicated to advancing the frontier of climate knowledge, as we expand our constellation to continue growing this impact exponentially."
