I wanted to share with you the outcome of the Forum on Earth Observations IV – Climate, Energy, and National Security: Meeting the Environmental Information Challenge. We have widely disseminated this meeting summary to the Hill, industry, academia, NGOs and government agencies. It can also be found in the event web site (www.ForumonEo4.com). I want to also take this opportunity to let you know that we are currently gearing up for the next Forum (V) where we will look at a comprehensive national strategy for environmental intelligence. Although we are in the planning stages now, we will soon be sending out more information. We hope you will be able to attend and look forward to seeing you there.
