Celebrate Biodiversity

Celebrate Biodiversity is a group of biologists seeking to promote conservation of underappreciated species through awareness. The group develops attractive posters showcasing the diversity of organisms that deserve more attention.

The first poster features seaweeds of the Bay of Fundy; the second features seaweeds of the Northeast Pacific (the groups initial volunteers are seaweed biologists).

The posters are available in an interactive format at the Celebrate Biodiversity website. Clicking on its image can access information on each species. Printed copies of the Northeast Pacific seaweeds poster can be ordered for CA$ 5.00 shipping and handling.
