Why?

Here are 5 shocking examples of what's happening right now.



  • Surprised researchers found dead polar bears far out at sea last year. Forty percent of the ice in the Arctic has already melted and polar bears must travel further and further to find food. The bears simply couldn’t swim far enough to reach the receding ice and many of them drowned!

  • Thousands of caribou calves have been swept to their deaths when migrating across rushing rivers that should have been iced over.

  • Penguins struggle for their lives because they cannot find enough of their main food source, krill, which are dying off because of rising ocean temperatures.

  • Coral reefs have undergone extensive damage, called coral bleaching, due to increasing temperature of ocean waters. In one year alone, 16% of the world’s coral reefs were wiped out.

  • Beautiful Monarch butterflies experienced a mass die-off in 2002 due to hazards caused by the increased rainfall attributed to global warming; scientists fear that this is the first of many similar incidents.

Polar bears and other magnificent wildlife will be going the way of the dinosaurs unless we wake up!
Here's how you can help:


  • Join with us to spearhead the effort to turn "global" warming into a "local" issue by partnering with state and local grassroots groups.

  • Champion the "Campus Climate Challenge" --

    a coalition that will engage students, faculty and staff at

    1000 college campuses in the U.S. and Canada in a contest to eliminate global warming pollution.

  • Supply the resources to advance all of our education programs-- whether we’re educating the public at large or specific members of Congress.

Please make a generous contribution and play a vitally important role in a nationwide movement to address global warming and other threats against wildlife today.
Many thanks,
