Audubon works with local, state, and federal decision makers to achieve common sense solutions to mitigate the climate crisis: from championing renewable energy to advocating for reduced carbon emissions to maintaining healthy forests and supporting sustainable agricultural practices. One piece of legislation Audubon is advocating for—the BIG Wires Act—was recently introduced in Congress and aims to mitigate the impacts of climate change and help preserve wildlife habitats. This legislation could make a world of difference for birds like the Scarlet Tanager, Piping Plover, Rufous Hummingbird, Allen's Hummingbird, and all birds on the brink. | | | | |
