Biosphere reserves are areas that link local communities and nature conservation to promote the green economy & a more sustainable future. More from UNESCO 🏛️ #Education #Sciences #Culture 🇺🇳 on Friday's International Day for #BiosphereReserves: unesco.org/en/days/biosph…

1 million animal and plant species are on the verge of extinction. UNESCO’s 748 #BiosphereReserves across 134 countries around the world demonstrate that humanity can live in harmony with biodiversity. It’s time to take action #ForNature: unesco.org/en/days/biosph…

Our new live stream has been running in South East Queensland over the last two weeks listening to the songs of humpback whales on their annual migration with BiosphereSoundscapes Griffith University and UniSC: University of the Sunshine Coast news.griffith.edu.au/2023/10/31/won… #ecoacoustics

Congrats to Australian Citizen Science Association for an inspiring conference at UniSC: University of the Sunshine Coast! It was great to present a paper on BiosphereSoundscapes today, exploring the potential of accessible and inclusive #ecoacoustics for citizen science and biodiversity monitoring in UNESCO 🏛️ #Education #Sciences #Culture 🇺🇳 Biosphere Reserves #CitSciOz23

For those that asked, the citizen science acoustic recorders we recommended are the Open Acoustic Devices #AudioMoth openacousticdevices.info

For underwater monitoring Open Acoustic Devices make the #HydroMoth – the world's smallest hydrophone/ recorder. This little device has completely transformed our approach to monitoring aquatic environments. Check out the HydroMoth campaign live now: groupgets.com/campaigns/1280 #CitSciOz23

eBird isn’t just about lists… it’s about turning birding data into conservation action. 🙌 #AOC2023

“Birds bring us together globally. They’re good indicator species of impending enviro. problems, & they inspire us to act for a better future for us, our kids, & the planet. Also, download the Merlin app.” Paraphrased inspiration from Chris Wood of eBird. #AOC2023
