On this Climate day of action, this is a useful reminder that we all need t=
o take action, not only giving priority to the electoral candidate we consi=
der has the best understanding and action plan for the environment, but in =
our daily decisions and actions.   We need to do mini-EIAs for all purchase=
s, for example, considering  how much CO2  was produced in making or growin=
g it and transporting it here ('buy local'), if is it needed (with food, ma=
king sure that it will not go to waste), if it has minimal packaging, if th=
ere is a recycled equivalent, etc.  Even very simple changes can help if ad=
opted by enough people, but sadly, only a minority (probably including most=
 of us) are showing that they care.  For example, I have sat near the exits=
 of major grocery stores and done counts, but found that only 20-25% of peo=
ple care enough about the future to use cloth or other refillable grocery b=
ags instead of the plastic ones.  Missionary work is clearly needed, along =
with strong regulations.

We delayed Rachel Carson's Silent Spring by banning DDT and the environment=
al movements of the 1970s, but greed has again gained the ascendancy, and a=
 massive action is needed to reverse that.  I hope that, as naturalists, we=
 are all environmentalists, and that the list owners will allow this postin=
g.  Much of the problem for birds comes from forestry and agricultural prac=
tices by large companies - especially clearcutting and use of pesticides su=
ch as the 'neonics' and Monsanto's genetically modified seeds that can be c=
oated with Roundup making the soybean, grain, and corn fields death traps f=
or birds in spring migration.  Research is good, but we can and need to tak=
e action on our own, given the urgency of the situation.

  The demonstrations today around the world give hope, but the politicians =
and media still treat economic growth (largely dependent on increasing popu=
lation or consumption) as a main objective, and describe stable economies a=
s 'stagnant'.

If we care about the future, we make E.I.A.* part of every decision or plan=
. -
* =3D Environmental Impact Assessment  (size appropriate to the significanc=
e of the plan or action)

 to a new study, within one human lifetime, North America lost more than on=

due to varying causes, all of which are results of human activity. Despite =
being some of our planet=92s most plentiful
 creatures, population loss of this magnitude is nothing short of catastrop=

<br>
The study, published by a joint team of conservation biologists, marks the =
first time experts have tried to estimate the sheer number of avian losses =
in the Western Hemisphere. By zooming out rather than focusing on one parti=

 the common birds we love, like Baltimore Orioles and Barn Swallows, are di=
