The data from satellite "AQUA" NASA Earth Science satellite mission is used as an input for the model calculations from a period of 2002 to 2032. This paper is a humble effort in exploring the two different platforms to study the impact of increase in concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere on various parameters of climate such as temperature, evaporation, rainfall, ice cover etc. The data from satellite is often passed through various data analysis model before being used as an input in computer model. With the onset of satellite technology during the same period, the two forms often complemented each other in various ways. As scales grew, these models needed increasingly vast quantity of data demanding technological and institutional innovation. Starting out with regional models, they switched to hemispheric models and global model by decade's end. In spite of early weaknesses, computer models were perceived as superior technique as it brought with it a voracious appetite for data. With the introduction of computers models in the weather and climate information infrastructure in 1954, it instantly became a part of intrinsic methodology of research.
