In the past 50 years, the total North American bird population has fallen by almost 3 billion or 29 percent. Rising temperatures also threaten two-thirds of North American bird species with extinction.
We have about a decade to preserve the habitats and species we know today, stem the effects of climate change and reduce risks to birds and other wildlife. And you can help.
We invite you to join us online and in person for bird and birding experiences. The Festival’s programming is designed to celebrate the work of leaders comitted to environmental justice and to help all of us learn from the heroes working to save birds and their habitat and restore green and wild places—especially in urban areas.
