Hi John,
Half the world's species are rapidly declining. The loss of biodiversity is occurring faster than ever, and we know why.
Overconsumption and a growing human population are destroying wildlife habitat, crowding out species and pushing them closer to extinction.
Of all the deals crowding your inbox today, the best — by far — is the chance to buy a future for wildlife.
Every gift to the Center's Saving Life on Earth Fund today will be doubled.

Habitat loss is making monarch butterflies highly vulnerable to extinction — the eastern population has declined by 90% since the 1990s.
North Atlantic right whales are critically endangered. At least 70 of these whales have been killed or seriously injured since 2017 — the two leading causes being vessel strikes and getting entangled in fishing gear.
And this month has been one of the deadliest for panthers in Florida this year. Four were killed in a single week, all because of vehicle collisions.
These are just some of the many species whose survival is at risk because of human activity.
But there's still hope, which is why I'm asking for your help.
The Center for Biological Diversity has been busy protecting the wild this year.
--Thanks to legal action taken by the Center, northwestern and southwestern pond turtles in California, Oregon and Washington received protection under the Endangered Species Act.
--We won protection for California spotted owls, dunes sagebrush lizards and sunflower sea stars.
--Habitat protection was secured for Sacramento Mountains checkerspot butterflies, North Pacific right whales, five species of Caribbean corals, and more.
--We blocked a logging project in the Kootenai National Forest, home to a small, imperiled population of grizzly bears near the Montana-Canada border.
Without the wild, there is no us.
But we must act with greater urgency to keep the wild safe and free for species.
Your support of the Center's work to save nature is the most lasting gift you can give. Every lawsuit, every court order, every legislative victory will stand as a testimony to your love of the wild.
Please help today with a matched gift to the Saving Life on Earth Fund.
