With the help of space-borne or ground-based measurements
scientists can monitor existing conditions
and create models
to better understand
these complex processes.
Contributions from global partnerships
to gather data are essential
to allow us to understand those phenomena,
to devise ways to mitigate the negative impacts to human activity,
and to respond to natural disasters that are not within our control.
Israel is a great part of that partnership.
You have already flown the MEIDEX experiment
and we work now with you continuously
on an Internet access program
for elementary school children called GLOBE
that allows them to look at data
on environmental science in their own classrooms.
We are very happy for the work that we have been able to do with you on both.
