We're thrilled by the amount of support we have gotten and are excited to see what the next 28 days have in store for us. If you already donated, thank you so much, you have our deepest gratitude. If you haven't yet donated, don't fret, there is still time to do so and please remember that every dollar counts!
In other news, we are in the news! Check out this great article that was written up about our Falklands research and take joy in the fact that you are all helping make it possible.

About This Project

Penguins, plants, and people: Getting to the core of climate change in the Falkland Islands

Climate Change Institute, School of Biology and Ecology, University of Maine

The Falklands Islands are a biodiversity hotspot in the South Atlantic, but are threatened by climate and land use change. To protect penguins, marine mammals, and other species, we need to better understand how the islands have responded to past periods of rapid climate change. Funds raised through this campaign will help us take peat cores, to establish a climate and ecological history for the Falkland Islands spanning the last 20,000 years.
