N2 - The relevance of this challenging still unresolved development of multi-band equatorially orbiting fully polarimetric POLinSAR satellite configurations to the entire terrestrial globe will be highlighted. Special attention will be given to generation of global weather phenomena, supply of an ever more relevant stable food base, extraction of mineral and energy resources with its implicit local environmental deterioration, and of more successfully securing bio-diversity. All of these daunting natural hazards of top international priority should justify the immense financial resources required for pursuing this timely and urgently to be realized proposal. In retrospect, collaboration with additional international National Research Centers involved in advancing multi-band POLinSAR satellite sensors is sincerely desired and so is the financial support from our national, regional and international governmental sponsors - foremost the United Nations. The proposer (author) and dedicated collaborators consider APSAR-2015 to be the ideal forum for introducing this timely proposal, well suited for the Lead-Session of Space- & Air-borne SAR Systems and Missions.
