It’s now or never. That’s the verdict from the United Nation’s climate report from earlier this year. And it’s what birds have been telling us all along! We need to act boldly and act now if we don’t want our world to become uninhabitable for birds and people.
3 billion birds have vanished in less than a human lifetime.
Two-thirds of North American bird species are threatened with extinction due to climate change.
Birds like the Scarlet Tanager are losing vital forest habitat.
Birds are telling us that we need to act boldly. And our research shows that preserving key bird habitats is our best defense against climate change. That’s why Audubon has prioritized protecting forests, grasslands, wetlands, and urban green spaces—all of which significantly reduce harmful emissions while safeguarding birds.
