For birds like the Scarlet Tanager, the loss of their forest habitat means losing safe places to nest, breed, and migrate. And for both birds and people, forest destruction means losing one of our best defenses against the devastating impacts of climate change.
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 need us now more than ever, and every act of generosity helps. That’s what Giving Tuesday is all about—and Audubon has wide-reaching networks and partnerships across the country to amplify your impact for birds. Because of this, we’re equipped to champion birds at the highest levels of national policy right down to the local level: to reduce dependence on fossil fuels, conserve resilient landscapes, and advocate for legislation that addresses the climate emergency.
What do we need to maintain momentum? Your robust support.
