Earth Day 2020: 10 ways to move the world forward, together!
Together, we will move the world forward.
We all share the same, single beautiful planet, as this image from Apollo 17 reminds us. As we inch closer to the distant light at the end of the COVID-19 tunnel, it’s easier to appreciate how every single one of us contributes to the millions of acts of love and sacrifice to protect each other. Pretty amazing.
Citizen science invokes a similar spirit of collective action. Through citizen science, we collectively protect the planet and all of its guests.
The beauty of citizen science is that it provides pathways so we can re-examine our world — from microbes in our bodies or on our phones, to insects in our homes, to animals and plants in nature, to emerging galaxies in space — and re-discover our place in it, all while helping scientists answer questions they cannot answer without us.
Below, our editors feature 10 ways to get started. Find thousands of events and projects on SciStarter.org leading up to, during, and after Earth Day on April 22.
