Take Action
The Arctic Still Needs Protection
[link removed]
This year President Biden canceled all existing oil and gas leases in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, but this precious area is not permanently protected! Fossil fuel companies can still get future leases approved to drill for oil and gas on this critical wildlife habitat and sacred land of the Gwich'in and Inupiat peoples. Our work is not done untill we designate the Arctic as a permanently protected place.
Tell the Biden administration to permanently protect the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge from oil and gas drilling. --->>> [link removed]

The idea, she says, was that "maybe if I started inviting more people out with me, then I can see more people out here who look like me."
