WASHINGTON, DC - Today, the Obama administration rejected the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline. APP issued the following statement:
“T is a win for birds and the rest of us,” said APP President and CEO David Yarnold (). “America’s Sandhill Cranes and other wildlife that were threatened by the pipeline can’t vote, so we’re popping some corks for them today.”
The APP saves birds and their habitats throughout the Americas using science, advocacy, education and on-the-ground conservation. APP's state programs, nature centers, chapters and partners have an unparalleled wingspan that reaches millions of people each year to inform, inspire and unite diverse communities in conservation action. Since 1905, APP's vision has been a world in which people and wildlife thrive. APP is a nonprofit conservation organization. Learn more at and .
