During Earth Science Week (October 8-14, 2006), millions of citizen scientists worldwide will be sampling groundwater, monitoring weather, touring quarries, exploring caves, preparing competition projects, and visiting museums and science centers to learn about Earth science. The American Geological Institute (AGI) organizes this annual event to encourage better understanding of the Earth sciences and stewardship of the planet. Guided by this year's theme, Be a Citizen Scientist, Earth Science Week 2006 activities will engage students in real research and help spread science literacy among ordinary citizens.
