Abstract:
In this article the author is talking about citizen science or community science. The author states that citizen science is something that anyone can be a part of. Citizen science programs and projects can be started by a scientist but also by an average citizen. Any community members can gather data they are interested in studying. This can be seen in the biologists working for the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission wanting North Carolinians help with gathering data on native species. The reason for asking for help from community is because there are thousands of species in North Carolina that need data gathered on.
