I'm a volunteer for the Great Basin Water Network. The Center for Biodiversity is a leader several times over for being a strong ally, a snynergistic catalyst, in helping protect species in the Great Basin that are fully threantened by the huge Southern Nevada Water Authority water withdrawals in eastern Nevada and western Utah. Their staff person in Nevada is thoughtful and just plain helpful on strategies, knowledge, doing the work and acting as a sounding board. I'm awed by CBD's ability to react rapidly to threats. We can all learn from them.

I support the Center for Biological Diversity because they are about the only environmental group to take on human population growth as one of the gravest threats to the planet.

CBD is a strongly science-based organization that uses court litigation to prevent environment degradation and species extinction.

Retired senior refuge manager with the US Fish and Widllife Service, I have over 32 years experience trying to "hold back the tide" of the pavers for profit exploiters. A career of protecting critters, establishing enviornmental education and frantically preserving habitat - while slogging through politics and bureauocracy. I am not impressed by agency bureauocrates or Corporate Green, the big, established conservation groups. Too much willingness to go along to get along...continual compromises...Like allowing State to gun wolves on a National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska! Thanks to CBD for stopping that. ....I very much like Center for Biological Diversity's no-holds barred, lawyer-loaded actions to stand up to Corporate exploiters and their bought-and-owned types in Congress and Agencies. Keep hammering them CBD...They will only [sort of] stop when solid case law forces them to.

Not aware that anything is needed except more volunteer lawyers and others. Maybe e mail what jobs volunteers can do for you?

CBD is an amazing organization that keeps it supporters up to date on what's going on in the wild world. It helps us feel connected to the wildlife with which we share this Earth, it gives nature a strong voice that resonates in courts, and it makes it so easy for busy people to contact their senotors and take action.

The center is unrivaled in its successful protection of imperiled species. As a studying conservation practitioner, I have followed their actions for nearly five years. Their valiant pursuit to ensure species survival is inspiring. Praise for tireless efforts is in order. Without the center, many species would be without a home and without hope. This is a group worth supporting.

The center for Biological Diversity actively protects my primary study species, gray wolves. I can rest assured that anything threatening wolves will be brought to my attention.

For a while, whoever was writing the newsletters was doing so in far too subjective of a manner. The letter was doing more than stating the facts and the radical tone was bothersome. Recent letters have been more moderate in tone, like they used to be.
