00:00:02,736 --> 00:00:04,471
- [Narrator] Did you know 
that there's a crisis

3
00:00:04,471 --> 00:00:05,839
facing pollinators,

4
00:00:05,839 --> 00:00:09,876
like birds, bats, butterflies, 
and especially bees?

5
00:00:11,344 --> 00:00:14,681
The Great Sunflower Project 
needs citizen scientists

6
00:00:14,681 --> 00:00:17,150
to identify where 
pollinators are doing well

7
00:00:17,150 --> 00:00:18,318
and where they are not.

8
00:00:19,919 --> 00:00:23,690
This is important because one 
third of the food in the U.S.

9
00:00:23,690 --> 00:00:25,258
depends on pollinators.

10
00:00:29,696 --> 00:00:31,331
It's easy to help.

11
00:00:31,331 --> 00:00:33,433
Watch for pollinators 
on sunflowers

12
00:00:33,433 --> 00:00:35,769
or any other flowering plant.

13
00:00:35,769 --> 00:00:40,507
First identify and count the 
flowers you are monitoring.

14
00:00:40,507 --> 00:00:42,876
Count the pollinators 
you see on the flowers

15
00:00:42,876 --> 00:00:44,978
and record the amount 
of time you watched.

16
00:00:46,613 --> 00:00:49,582
Upload your results on a 
computer or smartphone.

17
00:00:53,420 --> 00:00:56,556
Join the thousands of other 
volunteers across the country

18
00:00:56,556 --> 00:00:59,125
who are part of the 
Great Sunflower Project.

19
00:00:59,125 --> 00:01:01,094
You can make a difference.
