13. Support conservation as an armchair citizen scientist

Help out with conservation work without leaving your own home. The Zooniverse website is a great place to start. Zooniverse is the world’s largest and most popular platform for citizen science, people-powered research. The research is made possible by volunteers — by now over a million people around the world who come together to assist professional researchers with great success. Their goal is to enable research that would not be possible, or practical, otherwise, and they have many different types of research that you can help with. Many projects have produced unique scientific results, ranging from individual discoveries to classifications that rely on input from thousands of volunteers. Click on the ‘Nature’ projects to get a sample of the wildlife research that you can get involved with.

No 13 - armchair citizen science

What Biosphere Expedition does: Citizen science is also what we are all about, but ours is on the more active, hands-on side of the spectrum (although we have some home-based projects too). The whole spectrum is important and armchair citizen science, when done well, is just as valid as expeditions in remote and challenging locations.
