About
The Living Planet Symposium 2025 (LPS25) is the latest in ESA’s triennial series of global events on Earth observation. Held every three years, these symposia have grown in both size and scope, focusing on key environmental issues. In response to the intensifying climate crisis, LPS25 will center on the theme of moving “from observation to climate action and sustainability for Earth.”
With this theme in mind, ICOS will be present at LPS25 in the form of presentations and a booth with lunchtime talks. See the full lunch talks programme below.
