Climate change is a present reality, demanding urgent action from world leaders.

The Climate Reality Project, collaborating with WPP and UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, launched the #WhyWhyNot campaign. This initiative features young people asking "Why? Why Not?" to pressure leaders for meaningful carbon emission reduction commitments.

The campaign urges everyone to pose these fundamental questions to their networks and elected representatives, challenging inaction and vested interests until real change occurs.

M-44 "cyanide bombs," spring-loaded devices that lure and poison wildlife, are back. These indiscriminate devices cause agonizing deaths for foxes, coyotes, and birds, and have also killed pets

M-44 "cyanide bombs," spring-loaded devices that lure and poison wildlife, are back. These indiscriminate devices cause agonizing deaths for foxes, coyotes, and birds, and have also killed pets and injured children. In 2024 alone, they killed over 4,600 animals.

In 2023, after a decade of advocacy, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management banned M-44s on its lands. However, the agency has now quietly reversed this ban under the Trump administration.

We successfully fought to ban them before and will do so again. Your help is crucial.

A recent expedition in Mexico's Gulf of California tallied just 10 to 13 vaquitas, confirming these small porpoises are critically endangered but not yet extinct. Their population has plummeted from 600 in 1997, primarily due to entanglement in gillnets set for the endangered totoaba fish.

Despite the dire situation, Mexico has largely failed to enforce its totoaba fishing ban. The Center, advocating for over 20 years, now urgently calls on the government to enforce this ban immediately to prevent the vaquita's permanent loss. Learn more: https://biodiv.us/43PxPIE
