Fighting climate change by reducing CO₂ emissions is possible, but removing CO₂ from the atmosphere is far more challenging. Jeff Ravage and Andrew Wilson CoalitionUpprSPlatte Denver Botanic Gardens are fundraising to increase the carbon capture ability of fungal compost. experiment.com/projects/carbo…
Penguins are a charismatic yet endangered group of seabirds, due to human-caused stressors. Clara Maria Wiederkehr Bruno and @drneileanderson The University of Edinburgh are fundraising to measure human impacts on these species using antibiotic-resistant Salmonella. experiment.com/projects/do-hu…
Somalia's location makes it a prime spot for marine biodiversity, yet the extant marine diversity is poorly understood due to civil war. Abdirahman Abdi Dr Sarah Glaser 🐟🌊☮️ are fundraising to catalog this diversity and publish a field and identification guide. experiment.com/projects/what-…
Climate change can cause warmer oceans, leading to mass die-offs of habitat-forming coral reefs, but not all coral individuals are equally affected. jean-baptiste ledoux CIIMAR-UP is fundraising to research the genomics of individual resistance to heat waves. experiment.com/projects/do-me…
Nozzles are a critical part of rocket engines, yet their failure characteristics in small engines are poorly understood. Zachary Muckler and colleagues Magnetar Space are fundraising to test new composite designs and collect data on their failure states. experiment.com/projects/what-…
All species of sea turtles in Trinidad and Tobago are under threat due to poaching, pollution, and bycatch. M. Cazabon-Mannette Ryan Mannette SpeSeas are developing crowdsourcing tools and techniques to enable the long-term monitoring of these unique species. experiment.com/projects/using…
Overexploitation of coastal fisheries cause commerical fishers to expand into deepwater fisheries, which are more vulnerable due to their slower growth. Ivy Baremore and Samuel Owen MarAlliance are studying how these deepwater species reproduce. experiment.com/projects/can-w…
Antibiotic resistance is a growing threat to the health of both humans and animals. Daisy Han and colleagues Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine 🐕🐈🐴🐄🦅 are working to investigate the prevalence of antibiotic resistance in harbor seals, as well as the genomics of resistance genes. experiment.com/projects/antim…

Coral reefs are in decline due to human impacts and global climate change. Alma P Rodríguez Troncoso and colleagues Universidad de Guadalajara are working to build a global community science network to provide long-term monitoring for coral reefs in the Eastern Pacific. experiment.com/projects/build…
Hawaiian land snails are becoming endangered due to habitat loss, invasive species, and now climate change. Samantha Arsenault Hawaii Pacific University is researching how these unique snails could have gone extinct in the past in similar conditions of global climate change. experiment.com/projects/why-d…
