We are ClimateDetectives007, detectives who care about the environment and are concerned about climate change and its consequences!

This motivated us to participate in the European Space Agency (ESA) Climate Detectives competition for the school year 2023-24 and to study a, in our opinion, major problem that is very acute (also) this year : the abnormally high temperatures that prevail in autumn and winter, temperatures that lead to unexpected situations.

 The climate crisis and rising temperatures are something that is discussed everywhere, at school, in the family, on TV, on social media. But our daily life gave us the impetus to get involved: we noticed that even though autumn was progressing, the deciduous trees did not decide to change color, the leaves remained green and in place. As we found out afterwards they took a long time to turn yellow and leave the branches of the trees.
