*[Enwl-eng] North American bird species are dying in record numbers, moving closer to mass extinction

[ecology]

                        Birds are at their most vulnerable right now. We must protect them.

                        Approximately 75% of bird species across the North American continent are dying off. This includes birds like sweet little chickadees, red-winged blackbirds, great egrets, little blue herons, peregrine falcons, and more.



                        As their population numbers plummet, it shows that we are moving closer and closer to a massive extinction event.

                        Many culprits have contributed to this problem. Climate change is disrupting their food sources and breeding grounds. Human development projects — including clearing land for farms — are tearing down their ecosystems. And pesticide use is poisoning them.

                        And now, it's all set to get so much worse. Donald Trump has been hell-bent on attacking the environment and tearing apart wildlife protections. As just one example, he even recently directed the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to redefine what constitutes "harm" to endangered species — just so that corporations can get away with more oil-drilling and logging in old-growth forests.

                        We must be doing everything we can to save North American birds — not make the situation worse for them. Sign the petition to demand the Trump administration immediately stop its attacks on endangered species, wildlife, oceans, and the environment!

                        P.S. Birds are connected to everything and an indicator of the health of ecosystems overall. This is a frightening moment not only for them, but also for humanity and the rest of the world. Sign the petition.
