Get more intimate with nature and help measure global warming! The USA Natl. Phenology Org. is looking for observers to gather data on the timing of certain species,when they leaf out, bloom,etc. to ascertain effects of global warming, and other climactic events, nationwide. You don't need to be an expert; just observe the species you're familiar with.There are both native and non-native plants on the list. You don't have to have your own yard; you can observe on any land you have legal and frequent access to. A favorite grove, perhaps? Here's the link: http://www.usanpn.org
