Survival by Degrees: 389 Bird Species on the Brink

CHANGED
We have canceled all public activities for the foreseeable future.
Ana Paula will do this presentation with Zoom.

Details and registration are here.

 Audubon scientists studied 604 North American bird species using 140 million bird records—including observational data from bird lovers across the country. We plugged our bird data into the same climate models used by more than 800 experts in 80 countries to map where each bird might live in the future under a changing climate. They compiled the results in a report called Survival by Degrees: 389 Bird Species on the Brink.

The report shows that two-thirds (64%) (389 out of 604) of North American bird species are at risk of extinction from climate change. The good news is that our science also shows that if we take action now we can help improve the changes for 76% of species at risk.

Ana Paula Tavares, Executive Director of Audubon Connecticut/New York, will describe the study, the results, the protects for the future, and what we can do to mitigate the effects of climate change.
