Birds need a defender now.
NAME: KAREN SHARP SUSTAINER STATUS: Unconfirmed | | Become a monthly supporter today. | | | | Dear KAREN, Just last week, a devastating Supreme Court ruling directly threatened our ability to protect birds and the places we all need to survive. The decision impacted the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) ability to regulate carbon pollution and respond to the threat of climate change. The implications of this ruling could limit the ability of federal agencies to respond to clear and present threats to birds and other wildlife. Audubon will not sit by while birds' futures are threatened. We are committed to protecting vulnerable birds and their habitats through our unique and successful blend of rigorous research, committed advocacy, and hands-on conservation no matter the challenges they face. But, birds need us to act now and we need your support. Since 1967, North America's bird populations have plummeted—over 3 billion birds lost—and climate change is only exacerbating it. Birds like the Prairie Warbler are more vulnerable than ever, and new Audubon science shows that two-thirds of bird species face the threat of extinction without a reduction in carbon pollution. You can shield birds from further devastation by making an urgently needed gift right now. Your sustainable monthly gift strengthens and reinforces Audubon's mission to safeguard birds and the places they need. Will you please donate today? For decades, birds have been warning us about the dire consequences of climate change. They are our planetary 'canaries in the coalmine,' and they face a wide variety of threats because they live in—or migrate through—every habitat on Earth. That's why we're asking you to respond by making an urgently-needed monthly gift to protect birds right away. Audubon has an unparalleled track record of using science, advocacy, education and on-the-ground conservation to protect our planet's birds. This is a long-term fight, and we're not going anywhere. The donation you make today fuels a continued fight for a better future for birds and the places they need. It's going to take all of us to protect the birds we all love. Thank you for refusing to give up. Sincerely, National Audubon Society | | | | |
