Urge Congress to Support Climate Solutions

Audubon's new, ground-breaking report, Survival by Degrees: 389 Bird Species on the Brink, shows that two-thirds of North American bird species are at risk of extinction from climate change. But if we act quickly to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we can help improve the chances for the overwhelming majority of species at risk.

Right now, Congress is considering a bill that would help us switch from fossil fuels to clean, renewable energy sources. Ask your members of Congress to support the Better Energy Storage Technology Act of 2019!

To whom it may concern:

As a bird lover and your constituent, I am writing to ask for your support for S. 1602/H.R. 2986, the Better Energy Storage Technology (BEST) Act of 2019. Audubon's new, ground-breaking report, "Survival by Degrees: 389 Bird Species on the Brink," shows that two-thirds of North American bird species are at risk of extinction from climate change. But it also shows that if we act quickly to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we can help improve the chances for the overwhelming majority of species at risk.


In order to protect birds--and people--Congress must pass common-sense solutions that will reduce greenhouse gas emissions and transition the United States to a clean energy future. The BEST Act reauthorizes and refocuses the Department of Energy's research and development program for energy storage, and sets goals to build up to five demonstration projects for large-scale energy storage within five years. This investment will help create lower-cost and more durable storage solutions that will help reduce emissions while keeping the grid resilient and reliable.


I hope you will read the report (available at climate.audubon.org), and support urgent measures like the BEST Act to combat climate change.
