It's hard to believe that animals that have adapted to living in frigid arctic temperatures would be helpless at the hands of something as common as the everyday pollution that comes out of cars and power plants. But the global warming pollutants generated by the burning of fossil fuels have driven arctic wildlife to the edge of extinction.
The Global Warming Wildlife Survival Act directs the federal government, in consultation with states and other organizations, to anticipate and prepare for the drastic effects that global warming is likely to have on animals, plants and their habitats.
The bill dedicates the country's best scientific minds to identifying species and habitats likely to be harmed by global warming, and calls for a coordinated national strategy to address those threats. This bill complements efforts now underway in Congress to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, which is essential to combating and ultimately halting global warming and the threat it poses to wildlife.
Sign the petition today to ask your Senator to support the Global Warming Wildlife Survival Act!

Please support Wildlife Survival Act, S.2204. We need to protect our plants and animals. If we do not adopt these practices now the wildlife we have been able to help survive will have no chance and again we will have species disappearing and our children will never be able to see the beautiful animals and platns we once had here on our planet.

Why are animals going into the cities and towns to eat - because their own habitat is being destroyed!! The world is not just Human beings it is everything that lives and breathes.

In every deliberation we must consider the long term ecologic consequences. Without a healthy ecosystem we can not have a healthy economic system. If we can impact global warming for the better then me MUST prioritize all efforts to do so.
