Climate change and human interference are causing major obstacles for migrating birds. Climatic changes have several effects on migrations, including breeding and decreases in population. Human activity also affects migrations. Because birds fly lengthy distances during a migration, they come into contact with many different types of human civilization, which can have profound ramifications for the continuation of the species.
The Neotropical Migratory Bird Conservation Act is a program that provides grants to both public and private organizations whose mission is to preserve migratory birds and their habitats. The program aims to both preserve as well as bolster migratory bird populations around the world.
This legislation still needs support and funding if it is to succeed in solidifying lasting bird populations. Sign your name in support of the Neotropical Migratory Bird Conservation Act!
