Hi all
In case you didn't know about this... April 22, 2020 marks the 50th anniversary of Earth Day. In recognition of this milestone Earth Day Network, the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, and the U.S. Department of State are launching Earth Challenge 2020 as the world’s largest coordinated citizen science campaign. Earth Challenge 2020 will engage millions of global citizens to aggregate and collect more than one billion data points in areas including air quality, water quality, biodiversity, pollution, and human health. Through Earth Challenge 2020, citizen science volunteers will learn about their local conditions, and leverage information to inspire collaborative action and influence policy decisions. *Want to get involved in the Earth Challenge 2020 movement?* - *Submit a research question.* Right now, we invite you to help define the critical research questions that will shape Earth Challenge 2020. What essential question have you always wanted answered? What topic would you like to see researched by millions of potential citizen scientists? Tell us before *this Saturday, December 15th*! Submit your question using the EarthDay.org webform <https://www.earthday.org/earthchallenge2020getinvolved/> or on Twitter (@Earth_Challenge <http://twitter.com/earth_challenge>) using #EC2020 <https://twitter.com/hashtag/EC2020?src=hash>. - *Collaborate with us.* For Earth Challenge 2020 to succeed, we need the expertise and support of passionate individuals around the world. Send an email to earthchallenge2...@earthday.org to start a conversation on how we can work together to expand EC 2020’s impact. For more information, visit www.earthday.org/earthchallenge2020.
