Birds need your help to save their habitats. ([link removed])

Rising temperatures are making uncontrollable megafires increasingly common and many North American bird species—two-thirds of which are already threatened with extinction due to climate change—are paying the price.

The California Spotted Owl is just one bird paying the price due to our warming climate. They’ve seen population sizes in California decline by as much as 55% in just the past 30 years—and those losses are only accelerating as their habitats are lost to wildfires.

But with you, we can make a difference. Thanks to a generous group of donors, if we hit our goal of 1,000 new monthly gifts by Giving Tuesday, we'll unlock $200,000 in critical funding for birds. Will you be one of the 100 donors we need right now to keep on track? ([link removed])

We know these megafires are impacting the lives of people as well as birds. And with your support, we’ll protect and restore climate-resilient landscapes and key habitats, and advocate for a shift to clean energy and a reduction of carbon emissions—all of which will minimize the risk of more historic fires down the road. Our efforts will pay off for birds like the California Spotted Owl, Western Burrowing Owl, and for all of us.

 

Habitats are being destroyed by violent fires.

Over the past three decades the climate crisis has doubled the area of the western United States affected by forest fires.

389 North American bird species are at increasing risk of climate extinction.

Between 1995 and 2018, Spotted Owl populations in California shrank by at least 65 percent.

 

Audubon sees a future where California Spotted Owls—and all birds—have safe and plentiful nesting areas to raise their young. We’re doing everything we can to make that vision a reality—but we can’t do it without you. We still need 100 new monthly donors before midnight to keep pace with our Giving Tuesday goal. Please, will you start your monthly gift right now to amplify your impact? ([link removed])

Sincerely,

National Audubon Society
