What is Twearth Day?

Twearth day is Project Green Jungle's Earth Day Event.  

The name is derived from the combination of TWitter and Earth Day. 
Twitter.com is a website that allows it's users to update "followers" with information in a real time basis.  Project Green jungle is utilizing this technology to update this website in real time from the Jungles of Costa Rica for Earth Day.  We will be updating this site with water quality tests conducted on the Sixaola River, as well as during a species account and biodiversity survey of Hitoy Cerere Biological Reserve.  In fact, we wil be updating this site from Costa Rica for six days!


From your classroom, or from your home, you can take part in a whole week worth of events on this site.  Through these events, we encourage you to develop and use the information for your science curriculum or for a home learning experience.

Twearth Day 2009 will take place in Costa Rica.  Costa Rica is an amazingly unique country which houses an unbelievable amount of wildlife and natural resources.
