We wanted to make sure you didn’t miss the opportunity to have your impact amplified for birds in need like the American Goldfinch. When you start an annual gift today, it will make double the impact and help us continue working for practical, effective solutions to the urgent problem of climate change.
With the climate crisis worsening, severe heat waves are predicted to only increase in intensity, frequency, and duration in the coming years. This means that even those birds not directly killed by extreme heat can suffer long-term health damage as a result. If we don’t act swiftly, birds like the American Goldfinch will face much higher risks of dehydration and even death. Your donation can help prevent this.
If we act now, we can help protect many birds feeling the impacts of extreme heat, from songbirds who face risk of dehydration like the American Goldfinch to seabirds who have suffered mass die-offs like the Common Murre. With support from bird lovers like you, we’re pushing for the large-scale change it will take to ease habitat loss and help reverse the climbing temperatures of the climate crisis. We’ve also set ambitious, measurable goals to play a significant part in changing our planet’s carbon trajectory. Together, these efforts will provide critical habitat for birds, help mitigate the impacts of climate change, and contribute to the health of our planet.
The birds you love need support!
Repeated exposure to intense heat waves can negatively impact entire bird communities.
Severe heat waves are predicted to increase in intensity, frequency, and duration in the coming years.
With 3 billion birds lost in the last 50 years, we must do all we can to protect the species that remain.
