From deciphering old shipping logs to watching out for scary fish in the Mediterranean, there are lots of ways of becoming a citizen scientist and helping to save our planet. Watch the highlights of our discussion with leaders of five #citizenscience projects underway in Europe. There are many ways to get involved and contribute to improving our scientific knowledge of planet Earth, while also offering you the chance to make some exciting new discoveries.
