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.
