Match Update: Make 2X the Impact Right Now ([link removed])

Climate change is occurring 20 times faster today than during any historical period over the past 2 million years. That means that birds are facing more frequent extreme weather events like intense heatwaves, terrible droughts, and severe flooding. For small songbirds like the American Goldfinch that are extremely susceptible to high temperatures, this crisis is quickly turning deadly.

Birds can’t escape the impacts of extreme weather. But today, you can do twice as much to help them survive.

Please start your annual donation before midnight tomorrow while it will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $500,000, thanks to a group of generous donors. A gift that renews automatically every year gives birds protection they can depend on. ([link removed])

With 3 billion birds lost since 1970 and two out of every three North American species at increasing risk of climate extinction, we need to work harder than ever to protect the birds we love.

Guided by science, we’re pushing for reduced emissions, cleaner energy, and more resilient landscapes—all of which will be critical to mitigate the effects of the climate crisis like frequent extreme weather events. And with your support, we’re getting results.

American Goldfinch numbers have decreased by a cumulative 27% between 1966 and 2019.

The American Goldfinch could lose up to 100 percent of its summer range at a 3 degree warming scenario.

 

With more than a century of conservation expertise behind us, we know what it takes to protect birds and their habitats today and tomorrow. Can we count on you to be one of the 400 supporters to start an annual donation? Until midnight tomorrow, your first gift will be matched up to $500,000. ([link removed])
