Right now, we are living in times of ecological crisis! Our Earth is undergoing the greatest level of species extinction since the demise of the dinosaurs, but unlike their extinction, the current species loss is a human-generated phenomenon. Our home, the Sonoran Desert, is no exception.
The Sonoran Desert is the most lush and biologically diverse desert in the world. No other place on Earth contains unique wildlife such as the saguaro cactus, or the diversity of so many habitat types in one area. It is also one of the fifteen most endangered ecosystems in North America. There has never been a better time, nor a greater need, for people who are willing to take action in defense of the Sonoran Desert.
Phoenix Earth First! is a collective of local conservationists committed to protecting the native biological diversity of Central Arizona, through public education, grass roots community organizing, and direct action. To get involved or to learn of how we can work together to protect our homes, check this site regularly for action updates, and contact Phoenix Earth First! at
