March 2025 was the second warmest March ever recorded. 🌍 🌡️ Global temps were 1.68°C above pre-industrial levels. 📈 That’s 10 months in a row above the 1.5°C threshold. The signals are loud & clear. Climate action can’t wait. 🔗 https://t.co/pI93xZl9LH #CopernicusClimate

Our mission is to preserve, protect and restore imperiled wildlife in North America – not ignore real, present-day threats to species facing extinction. Let’s not celebrate the supposed return of a long-extinct species while today’s wildlife slips ever closer to extinction.

Climate protections = clean air, safe water, and a future powered by clean energy. Rolling them back? That’s not what we need—or want. Tell Congress to fight for us: https://t.co/0f1pToNXHh #StandForClimate
