Tell the Oil Industry: Stay Out of the Arctic Refuge

The Arctic Refuge is one of the last truly wild places left on Earth. But the oil industry sees it only as a drill site to profit from.

Called “the sacred place where life begins” by the Gwich’in people, the Coastal Plain is where caribou return each spring, traveling hundreds of miles to give birth. Polar bears den here. Migratory birds from six continents and all 50 states rely on this rare ecosystem. No place this far north supports such a diverse and wondrous array of life.

But once the drilling starts, the roads, rigs, pipelines, and pollution that follow will permanently damage this priceless wilderness for generations to come.

Add your name now and tell fossil fuel CEOs: Stay out of the Arctic Refuge.
