Don’t leave birds high and dry. Your annual gift matched ahead of World Water Day. ([link removed])

The Common Loon’s mournful yodeling is a characteristic sound of early summer in the North Woods lakes. But like two-thirds of North American birds, this icon of the wild is at increasing risk of extinction due to the climate crisis. We can’t risk them being silenced forever. Birds are telling us it’s time to act on climate. They’re already suffering from the effects of planetary warming—effects that will only intensify unless we change course.

That’s why, as we approach World Water Day, we are asking for your support while a special match doubles your power to help: Start your annual gift today, and your first gift will be matched, up to $30,000, to help provide birds with the safe, clean water they need. ([link removed])

The work we do today across the hemisphere to combat climate change and regulate water use will determine the future for birds who depend on clean water and healthy habitats to survive. As you read this message, we’re supporting numerous bills in Congress to reauthorize existing programs and create new programs to restore habitat, protect wildlife, and build community resilience in places like the Great Lakes, the Connecticut River, the Everglades and South Florida, the Delaware River basin, and the Mississippi River. We can continue this important work with help from generous people like you.

 

The birds you love are at risk

Human activities have significantly impacted birds that depend heavily on water.

Climate change, water fluctuations, and pollution remain serious threats to their survival.

We’ve already lost 3 billion birds in the span of a human lifetime.

 

Efforts like these have the power to turn the tide for birds—and in this code-red crisis, it constitutes our most hopeful way forward. We have more than a century of expertise on our side, and with it we’re tackling both the causes of climate change and its effects by advocating for sound policy, supporting sustainable resource management, preserving important habitats, and advancing climate action. Ahead of World Water Day, please join us with an annual gift while your first contribution will be matched, dollar-for-dollar, up to $30,000. ([link removed])
