This year, we encourage anyone interested in taking part in Biodiversity Day 2022 to take part in the Find 30 Species for CA 30x30 challenge! During CA Biodiversity Week (Sep 3-11), find and photograph at least 30 wild species in California. Your observations will automatically end up in this project! Your observations of plants, animals, fungi, and other species in California will help inform the California 30x30 initiative, to conserve 30% of California's lands and coastal waters by 2030. Go out and explore your neighborhood or local park, take a hike or explore the coast, or join in one of the many CA Biodiversity Week events Learn more about how you can participate here:
