We’re at a now-or-never crossroads: The decisions we make now will determine if we can secure a livable future—for birds and for people. That’s why today’s one-day match offer is so critical.
“It’s now or never if we want to limit global warming.” That was the dire warning from Jim Skea, Co-Chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Working Group III, upon release of the group’s latest report earlier this year. If we fail to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees, Audubon research shows that two in three bird species in North America may be vulnerable to extinction, including the beloved Scarlet Tanager.
We’ve lost 3 billion birds in the span of 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.
Guided by science and research, Audubon continues to work for practical, effective solutions to the urgent problem of climate change—just as we have for over 100 years. Using our proven combination of committed advocacy, empowering education, and expert on-the-ground conservation, we’ve shown that by protecting what birds need to thrive, we can improve our climate outlook.
