Brown said state officials will work with the San Francisco-based company Planet Labs to develop a satellite to track climate-change causing pollutants. Brown said the earth-imaging company has launched 150 satellites.

"With science still under attack and the climate threat growing, we're launching our own damn satellite," he said.

The Democrat, who is leaving office at the end of the year, didn't announce a launch date or divulge a cost estimate.

Brown's office said government scientists and staff will work on the project, but that no state money will be spent directly developing the satellite. Private donations are being made by San Francisco investment banker Richard Lawrence and his wife Dee Lawrence along with the Jeremy and Hannelore Grantham Environmental Trust.
