What's a citizen science project? Basically, it's crowdsourced science. In this case, crowdsourced climate science, that you can help with!
You don't need qualifications or any training besides the slideshow at the start of a project. There are a lot of things that humans can do way better than machines can, even with only minimal training, that are vital to science - especially digitizing records and building searchable databases
Like labeling trees in aerial photos so that scientists have better datasets to use for restoration.
Or counting cells in fossilized plants to track the impacts of climate change.
Or digitizing old atmospheric data to help scientists track the warming effects of El Niรฑo.
Or counting penguins to help scientists better protect them.
Those are all on one of the most prominent citizen science platforms, called Zooniverse, but there are a ton of others, too.
Oh, and btw, you don't have to worry about messing up, because several people see each image. Studies show that if you pool the opinions of however many regular people (different by field), it matches the accuracy rate of a trained scientist in the field.

I spent a lot of time doing this when I was really badly injured and housebound, and it was so good for me to be able to HELP and DO SOMETHING, even when I was in too much pain to leave my bed. So if you are chronically ill/disabled/for whatever reason can't participate or volunteer for things in person, I highly highly recommend.

My boyfriend and I have added to our Disney Descendants multi-crossover AU.
In addition to our original characters, we have established a timeline for the AU, and changed up the backstories of canon characters, one example being Vanellope Von Schweetz.
In our Disney Descendants AU, Vanellope Von Schweetz is actually Vanessa Madrigal, as she is Mirabel Madrigal's daughter. "Vanellope Von Schweetz" is her screen name. She was born right between Belle and the Beast's wedding and the formation of Auradon, making her, according to the timeline of our AU, three-and-a-half years older than Prince/King Ben(her exact date of birth is November 27, 1995) . She is one of a set of triplets, and she has two brothers. I will elaborate about them in another post.
She is one of the very first graduates/alumni of Auradon Prep(Class of 2014). At the time of the Descendants franchise, she is in university, studying mechanical engineering.
I will provide details of the events of the Wreck It Ralph movies in our AU in another post.
Thank you for reading my post and have a nice day or night!

Genuinely I'm only expecting things from Frozen 3 and 4:
-Kristoff existing outside of Anna
-Don't make no Norse Myth gods into actual characters (my best would be no Norse gods at all but I guess if they're some kind of divinity who show up without showing up and aren't Marvel alike, I could not with enjoyment get over it)
- Keep any male lover from my girl Elsa
- Let that woman stay in the forest at the end
- Bring me back my wifey Honeymaren
Disney, do what you want but this all I'm begging for!
