#COVID-19 could mean #massive #loss of #plant and #animal #species

The COVID-19 pandemic could cause a massive loss of plant and animal life if we don't step in. Sign Now Dear friends, Many people are hurting right now due to the COVID-19 pandemic. What you might not realize, though, is that plants and animals are too. In fact, without much needed help in Britain from conservationists this spring, the country's more fragile flora and fauna could suffer some serious setbacks. Sign the petition asking the United Kingdom to provide much needed emergency funding to the Wildlife Trusts during this pandemic! Biodiversity creates a stable, viable environment for plants, animals, and humans alike. But due to the pandemic, the main organizations protecting it in Britain are struggling with staff layoffs, dips in fundraising and profits, and an inability to safely facilitate volunteers' help. All this will hamper what is normally a very busy time for nature conservation efforts. The UK must do everything it can to preserve its threatened plant and wildlife species for the good of its citizens, and the entire globe! Please sign the petition today and urge the UK to prioritize nature conservation. The Wildlife Trusts needs emergency funding immediately! Thank you,   Kelsey B. The Care2 Petitions Team P.S. We cannot afford to let biodiversity efforts falter during the pandemic. Sign the petition.
