Can space exploration find solutions to climate change?

Sky News published this video item, entitled “Can space exploration find solutions to climate change?” – below is their description.

Prince William has criticised the space race, saying it detracts focus from tackling climate change.

But can space exploration help solve the crisis?

Professor Dame Julia King says we should “stop looking at our planet from afar”, but there are some “critical” ways we can use space. 

Actor and WWF ambassador Cel Spellman adds: “I don’t think the solutions are going to be found in space, in fact the solutions are here on Earth.”
