Mass die-offs, breeding failures, and empty seabird colonies have marine biologists in Alaska worried: Could this be the new normal? We won't let it be. Birds tell us that their survival—and ours—depends on each of us taking immediate action to curb the worst effects of this climate crisis.

Distressed and dying. That’s how the last seven years—collectively the warmest seven years on record—have left birds in the Arctic, according to a recent report by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. This is a code-red climate crisis—and it’s affecting the food supply for seabirds like Common Murre.

Birds can’t ask for your help. So we’re asking for them: Will you start your monthly donation now to protect the birds we love? Until midnight tomorrow, your gift will help unlock $10,000 more—so please, start your dependable monthly gift right away.

Unless urgent climate action is taken, the world could soon become uninhabitable for many bird species. But thanks to generous support from people like you, we’re building a more sustainable future for birds and people alike. Audubon’s Seabird Institute actively works to share conservation methods to benefit rare and endangered seabirds worldwide. And where we work, birds are better off. 50 years ago Audubon set out to bring the Atlantic Puffin back to Maine after it had nearly been hunted out of existence, and today thousands of puffins and other seabirds return to Maine's coast to nest each summer.

This work, and all of our work on behalf of birds, is only possible with the steadfast support of caring bird lovers like you. So please, make your monthly gift right away, while it will help unlock $10,000 more for birds and their habitats.

Sincerely,

National Audubon Society
