Opening up Science
@openupsci
We're working together to open up 'science', expand who does environmental research, and build capacity in citizen science #opener #citizenscience #NERCEngage


@NERCscience community for Engaging Environments is offering training to all NERC ECRs in public and community engagement practices including community listening, and citizen science. Apply by midnight 7th July 2019. Find out more on the website! earthwatch.org.uk/what-we-do/ena…









Can you spare a few minutes to help climate scientists rescue lost weather observations? Our #weatherrescue volunteers have completed the 1861-1863 batch already! Onto 1864-65! weatherrescue.org

Shirt. Blazer. Early train to Swindon. Hoping that @NERCscience will decide to fund our large grant proposal to build a new global temperature dataset, including #weatherrescue... Amazing team. Important science questions. Citizen science. How could they not?!

Want a practical way of helping climate scientists? Spend just 15 minutes at weatherrescue.org & join the crowd who are helping digitise millions of lost weather observations taken in the 1860s to learn more about extreme weather. And please spread the word #weatherrescue
