The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) released its climate strategy on Wednesday to expand agency-wide efforts to counter climate challenge.

The strategy assesses NASA's climate portfolio across the agency, extending beyond science and exploration efforts, to include every mission directorate and NASA facility, the agency said in a statement.

"With new missions coming online in 2023 to observe air pollution, Earth's water to help improve climate models, and the increasing intensity of storms, NASA-powered observations of our planet are at the core of how we study the effects of climate change," the agency said.

NASA's efforts also extend to aeronautics engineering, seeking to advance greener aerospace technology development, it added.

"This strategy will help NASA integrate our understanding of climate across the agency and in our partnerships to better serve the public," said Kate Calvin, NASA's chief scientist and senior climate advisor.
