Welcome to the first episode of The ScienceUs Podcast, a series that explores how everyday observations become valuable data, and how collaboration between citizens and researchers helps tackle real-world challenges.
In this episode, we speak with Teije Terhost from the Thermo-staat project, an innovative citizen science initiative that engages residents in monitoring heat in their homes. As climate change leads to hotter and more frequent heatwaves, Thermo-staat has helped communities better understand the impact of heat where they live. It has also shown how residents can play an active role in collecting data that helps cities adapt to a changing climate.
Together, we discuss the role of citizen science in climate adaptation, the value of community-driven data collection, and how collaboration between citizens and researchers can support informed decision-making and local action.
