Right Whales

John,

On Friday, friends of wildlife stood with millions of youth worldwide in a Climate Strike to send a message to governments everywhere: We won't let you ignore climate change. We demand climate action NOW.

Now, we have a message for you, John: our fight for climate action needs to grow, and we need your help to tackle this massive threat with everything we've got.

Please give to fight climate change.

This week's events give us the opportunity to turn this moment into a powerful step forward in our efforts to slash carbon pollution and protect wildlife and our most vulnerable neighbors from climate change. But whether we succeed depends on what you do right now.

Climate-affected species like the North Atlantic right whale are running out of time. With only 400 North Atlantic right whales remaining in the world, we can't afford to wait. Will you help us save them?

We can choose to ignore climate change and abandon wildlife like the right whale. Or we can choose to stand together and fight for transformative climate action.

John, please give $30 or more to help save this critically endangered species and other climate-affected wildlife from extinction.

The North Atlantic right whale is a beautiful, majestic species that travels thousands of miles every year from warmer southern waters near Florida to cooler northern waters in Canada. But warming ocean temperatures due to carbon pollution are shifting their food sources to new locations—areas without protections for this critically endangered species—and that's putting them in grave danger.

John, please give to help save climate-affected wildlife from extinction.

Scientists say we only have 11 years to cut our global carbon emissions roughly in half and until mid-century to reach zero net emissions before climate change fundamentally alters life as we know it. We must fight to prevent catastrophic climate impacts in the future—but we also need to work to minimize the effects of climate change people and wildlife are feeling right now.

The struggles that the North Atlantic right whale faces are only a symptom of a much larger problem that is impacting countless critically endangered species across the globe.

Please join us and contribute $30 or whatever you can spare to protect species like the right whale before time runs out.

That's why we're working on both fronts. Our programs to fight climate change include projects to replace carbon-emitting energy with clean, zero-carbon energy. We're also on the ground helping to restore America's wetland habitats to buffer communities from the devastating impacts of flooding.

The clock is ticking. We're running out of time to prevent and reverse the devastation. Please give as generously as you can today. Every dollar counts in the fight to protect people and wildlife from climate change.
