Climate change is already profoundly impacting humans, biodiversity, and natural communities. Extreme weather, habitat loss, and ocean changes are devastating wildlife globally, from polar bears to desert tortoises, and causing billions in human and economic damages. The U.S. alone suffered 22 billion-dollar weather disasters in 2020.

Urgent action is needed to expand renewable energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Defenders is actively addressing these threats by developing adaptive conservation plans, advocating for increased funding, and ensuring renewable energy projects are responsibly sited to protect wildlife.

The San Xavier talussnail, one of the world's rarest, lives exclusively on a single Sonoran Desert hill. These hermaphroditic snails can live up to 10 years, estivating for three and active only 3-4 days annually. Monsoon rains prompt their emergence from rock crevices to feed on lichen.

These unique snails are central to a major lawsuit filed by the Center against the Trump administration. The suit challenges the administration's failure to protect 241 endangered species, many facing imminent extinction.

Jade, an 18-year-old from North Carolina, is actively combating Colony Collapse Disorder and promoting bee conservation. Through her Pollinator Initiative, she establishes apiaries and pollinator parks in local schools, aiming to replicate her successful high school model across the area.

She has secured grant funding and organized students to become certified beekeepers with local support. Since April 2017, bees introduced to the White Oak area have been maintained pesticide-free. Jade's efforts highlight the importance of honey bees in the ecosystem and educate students about declining bee populations and beekeepers.
