WEBINAR | The State of Trees - Trees, Land Cover, Mangroves, Carbon: Featuring 2026 VSS Student Research Projects from Colombia, Italy, and Uruguay.

Join us as we feature 2026 GLOBE VSS presentations from students and educators from GLOBE schools in Colombia, Italy, and Uruguay. The presentations featured will be:

• "Determining Mangrove Ecosystem Health by Comparing Field and Satellite Data" - Colegio Montessori de Cartagena - Colombia
• "Survey on Trees in Urban Parks in Marcallo" - Istituto Comprensivo Statale "E. DE AMICIS" Macalli con Casone - Italy
• "Comparative Analysis of Carbon Storage in the Trees of a School Property (2024-2025)" Rural School No. 88, "Alfred Nobel" - Uruguay

Following the student presentations, we will have a discussion on how to wrap-up and archive a project so that the data remains in perpetuity for researchers to access for future research. Finishing up the webinar will be a brief discussion on the NASA Moon Tree effort and how this ties into the Apollo-Artemis legacy and the new Artemis II Mission, leading us into our April 2026 campaign webinar in preparation for Earth Day 2026.
