Deadline Approaching: Protect the birds like the Piping Plover with 2X the might ([link removed])

At one point, the Great Lakes region was home to anywhere from 500 to 800 nesting pairs of Piping Plovers. But by 1990, that number dwindled to just about a dozen pairs. Now, the Piping Plover is listed as endangered in thirteen states and threatened elsewhere. Under the most extreme warming scenario, these beloved birds are at risk of losing 87 percent of their range.

It’s nothing short of a crisis, which means we don’t have a moment to waste in protecting them for generations to come. In fact, two-thirds of North American bird species, including familiar songbirds like American Goldfinches, are at increasing risk of extinction because of climate change. That’s why we’re counting on bird lovers like you to act now. When you start your annual donation today, your first gift will be matched, up to $75,000, thanks to a group of generous donors.

For birds like the Piping Plover, more frequent and intense weather events like storms and hurricanes are existential threats. Yet the story of the Piping Plover also proves that where there is action, there is hope: In recent years, they have returned to nest in several sites they had previously abandoned. And research shows that our coastal stewardship is key to this recovery. It comes down to this: Where we work—and when you help—birds are better off.

 

Climate change is putting birds at serious risk.

These beloved songbirds could disappear from two-thirds of their present breeding range.

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