DestinE is a flagship initiative set up by the European Commission

to develop a highly accurate digital model of the Earth,

a “digital twin”.

Today, our team is checking out how DestinE models,

monitors, and simulates the interaction

between natural phenomena and human activities on our planet,

and how to mitigate their impact on the environment.

Thanks to the EuroHPC supercomputers,

artificial intelligence and high-speed connectivity networks,

DestinE will allow local decision makers and policy makers

to test different what-if scenarios

and see how they would turn out in the real world.

This will also be a powerful tool for scientists!

To enable policy makers, experts, business and non-professional users

to make informed decisions with ever higher accuracy,

DestinE will give them access to high quality data

related to identified environmental and societal challenges.

For example, it will be possible to see how human activities,

such as deforestation and fossil fuel emissions,

affect the environment,

and what we can do to adapt and better manage these effects.

Thanks to more precise information, we can be better prepared

to our daily and long-term challenges

in the local and global environment.

This visionary initiative will push the limits

of computing and climate sciences at unprecedented level,

helping to make Europe the first climate-neutral continent

by 2050.
