FutureLearn Week 3: Post 1 of 3

Citizen science can be applied to any and all kinds of scientific observations which require scientific monitoring data. Weather phenomena, climate change impacts in the environment, monitoring of local air quality and also monitoring the effects and impact of climate change on different species of animal. Citizen science for climate simulation and ecology can be incredibly helpful in monitoring many things such as monitoring microplastics in water so that people can be more aware of what products contribute to this and lead efforts to reduce or change the process in which manufacturers produce these products to eliminate it from water sources.
