SCBNA supports an invitation to scientists and those working in the environmental policy sphere to sign onto a scientific article<\/a> expressing unified concern about the US-Mexico border wall\u2019s negative impacts on biodiversity.<\/p>\n

A scientific opinion article was recently published in in the journal BioScience<\/i> with a group of scientists, including Drs. E. O. Wilson, Gerald Ceballos, Thomas Lovejoy, Michael Soule, Paul Ehrlich and others. The article discusses the negative impacts of the US-Mexico border wall on biodiversity and binational conservation, and outlines specific actions Congress should take to prevent further harm to wildlife.<\/p>\n

This is an initiative to invite scientists to endorse the article as signatories, and will include their names in the supplemental material when the article is soon published in BioScience<\/i>.<\/p>\n
