The start of a new year brings new hope and renewed commitments to the things that matter most in our lives. Which is why this is the perfect time to make an impact for vulnerable birds.

Right now, across all three potential warming scenarios our planet faces, the Snowy Owl has a high vulnerability status, meaning there isn’t a moment to waste to protect these majestic creatures from potential extinction.

Start 2024 off right, protect birds on the brink. ([link removed])

There is something special and magical about seeing your first bird of the new year, a sign of new beginnings and all that is possible.

But far too many of the birds that bring us joy, like the majestic Snowy Owl, have their futures in jeopardy. In fact, the Snowy Owl has lost 50 percent of their population in less than 40 years.

We're just beginning the new year, which means there is still time to make your resolutions for 2024. And right now, with so much at stake, there isn't a better time for you to protect vulnerable birds. Thanks to a generous group of donors, your first monthly gift will be matched 2X up to $50,000.

The Snowy Owl's Arctic habitat is especially vulnerable to climate change. If we don’t take action to slow climate change now, 93 percent of the icy tundra where they nest and breed will become too warm to support them—meaning many people will no longer experience their magic.

That’s why Audubon’s Alaska and public lands teams have worked tirelessly to educate and brief officials from the Biden administration about the threats to birds in the Arctic and to urge protections for priority habitats.

Snowy Owls have been listed as a “vulnerable” species since 2017.

We are working to permanently protect important Snowy Owl habitat from oil and gas developments.

 

These efforts have been years in the making, and we are excited that this advocacy is beginning to pay off for millions of acres of Arctic Alaska—a major ecosystem for the Snowy Owl. Just last September, the Biden administration announced a suite of constructive actions that would strengthen conservation protections and help address climate change in America’s Arctic.

But we can’t keep up this momentum in 2024 without you on team bird. There is too much at stake to sit on the sidelines. Will you join us by starting an annual commitment to protect vulnerable birds in the new year? ([link removed])

Sincerely,
