<P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 2em" class=brand-font>There has been
a nefarious power working to undermine some of the United
States' strongest protections for wild animals in need. Polar
bears, right whales, and monarch butterflies are among the
thousands of species designated under the Endangered Species
Act (ESA) for special protections. Yet, in 2008, a loophole
was added to the ESA saying that climate change need not be
considered when protecting endangered species. <STRONG>Given
that all the things causing climate change are also
dessimating endangered species, this kneecapped animal
protection laws in a massive way!</STRONG></P>
<P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 2em"><STRONG><A
href="https://www.care2.com/go/z/e/A7wg5/zxfN/b04p6"><FONT
color=#006d7d>Sign the petition and ask that Joe Biden
immediately remove these dangerous changes to the ESA, and put
the focus back on protecting animals from all
threats!</FONT></A></STRONG> </P>
<P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 2em">The number one cause of animal
endangerment or extinction is a loss of habitat — and when it
comes to species like the polar bear, loss of their icy
habitat is directly caused by a warming world. Climate change
also has devastating effects on migratory animals like right
whales and monarch butterflies, whose survival depends on
consistent weather patterns. <STRONG>Our refusal as a nation
to accept the realities of climate change and curb it further
is literally killing us, and we are taking these blameless
animals down with us. <A
href="https://www.care2.com/go/z/e/A7wg5/zxfN/b04p6"><FONT
color=#006d7d>Sign on to demand the ESA is fully restored and
can actually protect endangered
species!</FONT></A></STRONG></P>
