After five years of legal action by the Center for Biological Diversity, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service finalized Endangered Species Act protection for the Dixie Valley toad. These extremely rare amphibians, previously under emergency protection, face acute threat from a geothermal power plant likely to dry up their critical hot springs. As the Center’s Great Basin Director Patrick Donnelly stated, "Renewable energy is essential to combating the climate emergency, but it can’t come at the cost of extinction."

The Center for Biological Diversity is a 501c3 nonprofit dedicated to protecting all species through science, law, and creative media, believing human welfare is deeply linked to nature's diversity.
