Backyard Science
Phenology is a science that anyone can practice without a lab coat, microscope, or PhD. It's the study of seasonal events such as first flowers, appearance of certain butterflies, etc. People have tracked these dates for decades -- even centuries -- and now there's a place on DK to record your own observations. A casual spot to tell what you're seeing in the park down the road or in your own back yard.

Climate/Environment Fight
Inspired by Governor Jay Inslee who prioritizes defeating climate change first and foremost, this group embraces his positive message that the same Americans who put humankind on the moon can defeat climate change and thrive while doing it. As the first generation to feel the sting of climate change, we accept the mantle of being the last generation who can defeat it. FACEBOOK :https://m.facebook.com/InsleeClimate-First-346799152621048/

We're still gonna hold hands, help each other out, ask dumb questions, and laugh ourselves silly, this time as we navigate the jump to WordPress. Follow the group or the #CrankyUsers tag.

Women for Bernie
Women for Bernie is a group created to push back against the sexist and minimizing meme that "only men support Sanders for President." We're here to say we exist AND we aren't a figment of our own imaginations, you cannot twist our words and say we support the patriarchy simply because we feel Sanders is the best candidate in the election, and no, not all Sanders supporters are "BernieBros" or "Bro-gressives." A lot of us are, in fact women -- and proudly so. -----------------------------------...
