Crowdfunding Science on Experiment.com

Note: I had a few problems with my website this week, everything survived in the backups except this post! So here’s a very simply quick summary of what I wrote about…

Up until recently, what crowdfunding has really lacked is a website dedicated to science. So I was pretty excited to discover Experiment.com. I’ve written a few times about crowdfunding for conservation, and the variety of projects being funded.

This website, I think takes things to the next level. After a quick peruse, here’s a few of my favorite conservation and ecology themed projects!

Book James for a speaking event:

James is a highly acclaimed public speaker, delivering keynotes, lectures and debates to a wide range of audiences including students, the public, conservation practioners and scientists. Rather than further polarizing already divisive conservation topics, James aims to explain the complexity and nuance of conservation. What we choose to do over the next five decades, will profoundly influence the diversity of life on eath for the next 5 million years. It’s never been a more important, or more exciting time to be a conservationist.
