 Diversity\n\nhttps://www.biologicaldiversity.org/about/\n\nAt the Center 
 for Biological Diversity, we believe that the welfare of human beings is 
 deeply linked to nature — to the existence in our world of a vast 
 diversity of wild animals and plants.\n\nBecause diversity has intrinsic 
 value, and because its loss impoverishes society, we work to secure a 
 future for all species, great and small, hovering on the brink of 
 extinction. We do so through science, law and creative media, with a focus 
 on protecting the lands, waters and climate that species need to 
 survive.\n\nWe want those who come after us to inherit a world where the 
 wild is still alive.\n\nBay Area office: 1212 Broadway, St. #800, Oakland,
