I signed up for Project Budburst and will be gathering environmental and climate change information in my own backyard.
Project BudBurst is a national field campaign for citizen scientists designed to engage the public in the collection of important climate change data based on the timing of leafing and flowering of trees and flowers.
That’s the official description of Project Budburst. What it really involves is choosing a few plants that you can observe everyday. Then you report the phenophases, or events, such as first leaf, first flower, first fruit, etc. on your log at the Budburst site.






That’s a good idea, and will be an educational experience I think.
Well be interesting to hear what you discover.
Good luck!
