The competition aimed to encourage students to use technology in collect data and Lean how to analysis it and then share the results with their colleagues.  >>

The aim of this competition was to spread the importance of protecting the environment and raising awareness of the causes of environmental pollution.

Join GLOBE Observer LIVE for a special Facebook Live event all about Trees on 26 March 2018 at 3:00 p.m. EDT.  >>

Healthy forests play a crucial role in Earth’s ecosystem as growing trees take up carbon from the atmosphere. NASA satellites and airborne missions study forests to see how carbon moves through ecosystems – and now citizen scientists can help investigate this key question as well by using their smartphone to measure tree height.  >>

Citizen scientists from all of the GLOBE regions -- and from 25 countries -- participated in the 2018 Land Cover Challenge.  >>
