The celebration of National Conservation Day every November 27th aims to get people in Mexico, and around the world, involved in ecosystem conservation activities by contributing knowledge and building ideas to help protect the environment, as well as raising awareness about the value of ecosystems and their biodiversity, and that each individual action represents a great help.
World Wildlife Conservation Day
World Wildlife Conservation Day falls every December 4th to raise awareness and engage conversations about species that are endangered or under threat of extinction because of poaching, trafficking and other environmental factors. Wildlife conservation is the act of protecting endangered and near-extinct species by preserving their natural habitat.
Christmas Bird Count
The Christmas Bird Count (CBC) is a census of birds in the Western Hemisphere, performed annually in the early Northern-hemisphere winter by volunteer birdwatchers and administered by the National Audubon Society. The purpose is to provide population data for use in science, especially conservation biology, though many people participate for recreation. The CBC is the longest-running citizen science survey in the world.
This activity has been held in Ensenada since 2002 and the Estero de Punta Banda is one of the monitoring areas. More information on how you can join this activity will be available soon.
