​For over 100 years, Audubon had focused on making the world a better place for birds. In 2014, National Audubon released a Birds and Climate Change Report. The report established that shrinking and shifting ranges due to the changing climate could imperil more than half of the 588 species of North America breeding birds involved in the study – within this century. This seven-year science investigation, made possible by decades of community-science data, sounded an alarm that made news around the world. In early October of 2019, National Audubon released a follow-up report – Survival By Degrees – that paints an even more challenging situation for birds if the world does not take action to reduce global warming. This presentation will summarize the results of this study and discuss actions that individuals can take to help birds.
