But then came november The Center for Biological Diversity had some extraordinary moments in of Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, our securing of 27 million acres of protected habitat for endangered species, our achievement, along with local Arizona partners, of superstar status for El Jefe the American jaguar.
There were plenty of wins for wild creatures great and small, as well as for wild places and the climate — and I hope you’ll read about those wins in this report.
Trump’s ascendancy was a shock, and it made us sick at heart.
But we haven’t let it slow us down.
Instead we tackled his administration even before it took office, launching our powerful EarthWashington, D.C., on Jan. 18 with resistance messages from more than 150,000 people nationwide after a three-weeks-long, two-route, 16-stop tour across the United States.
And our momentum hasn’t diminished one bit since the inauguration — in fact we’ve already filed more than the malfeasance of the Trump government.
Every step of the way we’re fighting the president as he tries to deny the reality of climate change, discredit science, gut our environmental laws, despoil our public lands and waters, open the doors to killing off our native wildlife, conduct mass deportations, eliminate regulations protecting poor communities from pollution and violence and take away women’s reproductive rights.
We’ve filed suit against Trump for opening up federal lands to coal mining.
We’ve filed suit over his approval of the Keystone XL pipeline.
Along with Arizona Congressman Raúl Grijalva, we’ve sued over Trump’s disastrous and cynical border wall scheme, which would further militarize precious landscapes and hurt wildlife and human communities alike.
We’ve sued him for revoking protections for wolves and bears, which can now be gunned down and trapped on Alaska’s national wildlife refuges.
We’ve sued to force the release of EPA chief and climate denier Scott Pruitt’s emails.
We’ve sued to reverse Trump’s order opening up the Arctic Ocean to oil drilling.
We won’t rest until Trump is out of office and his destructive policies have been beaten back.
So for your faith in the past, and your faith in the future, I give you my thanks.
National Wildlife Refuge, the Center was at the front lines to protest this desecration of wildlife habitat and public land.
— to see justice done against the Bundys and their co-conspirators and make sure our national parks, forests and refuges, and other public lands remain protected for all people.
We won designation of more than 27 million acres of critical habitat in 2016, helping preserve the homes of a long list of rare and vanishing creatures.
This included drastic declines; 40,000 square miles of ocean habitat for the 500 North Atlantic right whales remaining in the world; and almost 40,000 acres for the Kentucky arrow darter, a beautiful fish found in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains that is threatened by coal mining.

In July we led petitioning the Obama administration to end new fossil fuel extraction on federal lands and oceans.
and allies delivered signatures supporting this petition to the White House.
Photo by Robert Jackson In 2016, partly as a result of our remarkably productive 757 species agreement, the Center obtained federal protection — and a new lease on life — for no fewer than 33 species.
These included urgently imperiled species in Hawaii (plants, birds and insects) and five species in Samoa (two birds, two snails and a bat).
Protecting `Akohekohe (crested honeycreeper) by Jim Denny 6 BROUGHT ART AND ENDANGERED SPECIES TO U.S. CITIES FROM BUTTE TO BIRMINGHAM.
To bring the beauty and power of endangered species into neighborhoods and people’s lives, we launched a campaign to paint endangered species murals in communities across the country.
We inaugurated it with a beautiful mountain caribou in Sandpoint, Idaho and followed up swiftly with an Arctic grayling in Butte, Mont.; a monarch butterfly in Minneapolis, Minn.; watercress darters in Birmingham, Ala.; and a whale in Los Angeles, Calif.
In early in federal waters off the coast of California, but that ban was lifted a few months later.

After organizing a schoolchildren’s contest to name the only wild jaguar living in the United State at the time, the Center and our partners at Conservation CATalyst released remote-camera footage of “El Jefe” to the public.
At least the world saw footage of El Jefe; it also ran on British, French, German, Mexican, Brazilian, Cambodian and Chinese television, among many other countries’.
The great cat was featured in hundreds of media stories and on the cover of Smithsonian magazine — all of this creating a groundswell of love for jaguars that will help secure their future.
The Center’s been fighting for years to save jaguars — we secured more than acres of critical habitat in 2014.
This year we launched our Wild Energy campaign, promoting renewable energy solutions that benefit wildlife as well as human communities.
Our Population and Sustainability team put out a groundbreaking report, Throwing Shade: Blocking Distributed Solar Development, to try to encourage states that have high potential for solar, but bad policy on it, to realize their potential.
We helped push Amazon to commit to greatly expanding its rooftop solar commitment, and we delivered more than messages from supporters to their representatives in Congress, urging them to put solar panels on government buildings.
Wild Energy GAVE A VOICE AND NAME TO AMERICA’S ONLY WILD JAGUAR.
Bringing major media attention to the only known wild jaguar currently living in the United States — whose habitat in the Santa Rita Mountains outside Tucson, Ariz., is threatened by a destructive proposed open-pit mine whose construction we’re fighting — we held a naming contest in which schoolchildren chose El Jefe’s name; then, along with partners, we released a video of El Jefe in his wild home that went viral and was carried by news outlets across the country.
A groundbreaking report we released in among major pesticide products reported in patenting documents — impacts the EPA failed to consider when approving those products to enter our environment.
So we filed a legal petition asking the agency to require information on dangerous pesticide synergy in pesticide-approval applications.
Years of work also resulted in the EPA releasing, in pesticides on endangered species: 97 percent of the more than 1,800 animals and plants protected by the Endangered Species Act are likely to be harmed by two commonly used pesticides.
And we sued the agency for approving halauxifenmethyl, a threat to rare plants and the increasingly rare monarch butterfly, without considering these effects.

At the Paris climate summit, we pressed for U.S. leadership on cutting greenhouse emissions.
construction of a new oilfield on the state’s Central Coast; and led the fight against oil trains.
In our work to keep fossil fuel drilling from further damaging our oceans, we mobilized and supported a movement to end new oil and gas leasing in the Gulf of Mexico in 2016.
We successfully urged President Obama to permanently remove the majority of the Arctic Ocean and parts of the Atlantic from the federal government’s fossil fuel leasing program, as well as to keep all of the Atlantic and Arctic oceans out of its new five-year offshore leasing plan.
And we helped persuade the administration to deny six permit applications from oil companies to conduct seismic exploration in the Atlantic, from Delaware to Florida.
Saving our Oceans On the global wildlife front, we won exciting victories in 2016, securing a ban on international commercial trade in pangolins — small, scaly, highly endangered creatures that happen to be the most traded mammals on Earth — and new protections for threatened lions and nautilus.
We won landmark victories in California this year protecting the state’s rich biodiversity from the harms of sprawl: In the state’s Supreme Court we prevailed over Newhall Ranch, a massive sprawl development near Los Angeles.
The Center’s Climate Law Institute played a critical role in efforts to halt fracking and dangerous drilling on land in California, the country’s third-largest oil-producing state.
We supported a grassroots effort to ban extreme oil-industry techniques in San Benito County, which in November became the sixth California county to ban fracking.
In cooperation with neighborhood organizations, we helped persuade the city of Los Angeles to impose new restrictions on dangerous oil drilling near homes and schools.
And through legal work, we helped maintain a moratorium on leasing public land in California to oil companies.
We helped secure three new national monuments in Southern California’s deserts to protect some of the country’s most spectacular scenery and rarest plants and animals.
