Description:
Grasslands: play a significant role in sequestering atmospheric carbon and preserving habitat for birds. By maintaining existing grassland and supporting farmers and ranchers in conservation-focused agriculture, we can easily capture a huge amount of atmospheric carbon and protect threatened grassland bird species.

Climate Strongholds: areas that are predicted to have high climate suitability and low human modification for bird species at present, and under contemporary climate change scenarios in both breeding and nonbreeding seasons1 . These areas balance the representation of all included species and capture critically important habitat for every bird species assessed for each ecosystem today and under climate change.
