There may be 10 times as many citizen scientists in Australia as we thought – and that’s great news for science https://t.co/ww4XSeU6Jk via @ConversationEDU

[FrogID @FrogIDAus]

#CitizenScienceMonth is a great time to record frogs, especially across northern and western Australia right now, where recent wet weather means high activity.

If it's safe to, please use the free #FrogID app to record any frog calls you hear.

Boppa the #wombat eased out of his #burrow as dusk settled over the #bush. The cool air carried the scents he knew well - fresh shoots, damp earth, and the quiet stir of nighttime #creatures. #WombatWednesday #WomSAT #WombatConservation

[World Ocean Day @WorldOceansDay]

Repost from @gilisharkconservation

Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are “safe zones” established around the world to conserve and protect our ocean.

As marine biodiversity continues to decline, MPAs remain one of the most important tools to achieve the global 30x30 goal, to protect 30% of the ocean by 2030. However, the reality is that many MPAs are still not well enforced, and current ocean protection remains below what is needed.

This matters because marine biodiversity is deeply connected to our own lives. What happens in the ocean always comes back to us. Awareness is the first step toward protection, because when the ocean thrives, people thrive too.

[UN Ocean Decade @UNOceanDecade]

🔵The #OceanDecade delivers the science we need for the ocean we want. Coordinated by @IocUnesco, it is part of a broader mission to turn ocean knowledge into action.

👉 Follow @IocUnesco to explore the science, partnerships, and initiatives shaping the future of the ocean.

Happy #WorldWildlifeDay from team #WomSAT.
Celebrating the incredible #species we work to #protect every day – our incredible #wombats and their #habitat!

[Convention on Wetlands @RamsarConv]

Are you inspired by someone driving ocean action?

UNEP has opened nominations for the 2026 Champions of the Earth award – the UN’s highest environmental honour and celebrates individuals and organizations whose actions have a transformative impact on the environment.

This year focusing on leaders at the forefront of caring for the ocean, an ecosystem essential to life on Earth that is increasingly under strain.
Nominations for #EarthChamps are now open until 15 April: https://t.co/dGnB4oO0eh

#citizenscience Spotlight

Citizen scientists are creating 3D “digital twins” of Baltic Sea shipwrecks before warming waters destroy them. Led by the Maritime Archaeological Society of Finland, the project preserves shared underwater heritage for all.
