ACF Investigates is a citizen science project that brings together a community of nature-loving digital sleuths who help uncover deforestation by classifying satellite imagery and gathering data on their phone or desktop.

Australia is a world leader in nature destruction and every day iconic Australian animals, like the koala, are pushed closer to the brink of extinction. We’re also a big country which unfortunately makes it easy for bulldozers to destroy the forests and bushland we love unseen and undocumented.

That’s where ACF Crowd Sourced Investigations comes in!

By taking some time out of your day - whether on your daily commute or during your lunch break - to help us analyse satellite imagery for signs of land clearing, you’re joining a community of people who want to uncover this destruction and stand up for nature!

This would also be a great alternative to doom scrolling or hypnosis scrolling.
