The only way the UK can reach its target of net zero emissions by 2050 is by taking a better look below the surface, say experts from BGS and geologists from across the UK.
Producing a broad range of geological data and information, including digital mapping, for all stakeholders.
BGS has welcomed the Government’s Ten Point Plan for a Green Industrial Revolution which highlights the importance of geology and the ongoing need to support essential geoscientific research that will underpin the UK’s long term energy transition.
Our intention is to balance the safe retention and control of national geoscience databases and geological information, with the need to release information openly.
Developing and using innovative Earth observation techniques to characterise and monitor Earth processes that affect lives and livelihoods.
BGS use drones to gain a perspective of the Earth that is simply not possible with instruments that are based on the ground.
