Support Citizen Science - Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics

The Leave No Trace Center is actively raising funds to support further expansion of the Citizen Science program. Goals include engaging CitSci.org to build a “white label” version of its platform that is fully customized to Leave No Trace, and hiring a staff position dedicated to facilitate this work—total cost around $150,000 including dedicated technical support.

This could be the perfect project to help us stretch the envelope of citizen involvement. I have been thinking about a project like this for the past five years, one that enlists the public in monitoring forests.Lisa McBride, National GIS Program Manager for the U.S. Forest Service
