People are being asked to look out for aeroplane trails, or contrails, which may be contributing to climate change and which can only be recorded by the human eye.
Researchers are also urging schoolchildren to blow bubbles to measure wind speed and direction near the ground, to reveal how the built environment affects the wind, as well as watching cloud movement to record wind direction in the sky.
The Open Air Laboratories (Opal) survey also involves the public recording how hot or cold they feel as part of efforts to see how people might cope with temperature changes.
Thousands of schools are set to take part in the public science project, along with members of the public.

Bubbleheaded Barking Mad Met Office Modelers
******************************EXCERPT*********************************
From the organization that cant forecast its way out of a paper bag, and then cant bring itself to tell the public about long range forecasts anymore, it has come to this. OK, Im not against citizen science, but when you start asking the Chemtrail watchers to do science to help check your models, theres no hope for you. They apparently have no idea what they are getting themselves into asking for contrail watching. If they thought they were going to catch flak for long range forecast issues, just wait until the Chemtrail people start in on them.

Check out these statements:

Scientists are also keen to discover what confuses people about climate change so that they can widen public understanding of the topic.
Dr Geoff Jenkins of the Met Office said: Were asking people to get outside observing and measuring the weather.
What they see and record will be useful for checking the systems we use for forecasting weather and predicting climate.
How hot or cold they feel? Sure that will reduce the uncertainty The only thing missing is tea leaves or tarot card readers.
Barking mad they are. Either that or this is simply a propaganda tool to engage children in the idea that they can do something supposedly useful to change the climate.
fyi
Do farts count as bubbles? Then I did my job for Mother Gaia.
I hear that soap residue in the upper levels of the atmosphere is a marvelous greenhouse gas...
I’m forever blowing bubbles... blowing bubbles to the chem trails... Ha Ha Ha!!!
Oh, why not? The climate change hoaxers have been blowing smoke for years.
LOL!
ROFL!
Too damn true...it is merry ole England....
LOL! Thanks Ernest.
