Save Birds Here

What will change in the world because this Project happens?

We can conserve American natural and urban habitats so more birds, and humans can thrive.

We can model activism initially focused on an immediate crisis that will result in a general good. Consider how birds and humans share exactly the same life-support system. What we do for [name of animal here] we do for ourselves.

We will strengthen the connection between a crisis (ex. bird die-off) and direct political advocacy. Responders use onsite text to briefly describe the crisis and urge their elected officials to sponsor legislation. Resonders don't have to join a group, pay dues, go to meetings etc..

We can create a mashup template which can be used for similar crises (ex. concentrations of breast and prostate cancer victims) and resources (ex. places with little or no incidence of cancer).
