The first-ever Citizen Science Day was held in 2016 and the citizen science teams at Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County and California Academy of Sciences dreamed up a fun way to capitalize on their home cities’ friendly rivalry and hold a citizen science event around urban biodiversity. That was the first City Nature Challenge, a friendly competition between Los Angeles and San Francisco, engaging residents and visitors in documenting nature to better understand urban biodiversity.
Listen in as Alison tells us why and how you can participate.
