Friend, the Arctic is one of the last truly wild places on Earth. It's a sacred landscape to the Gwich'in and Inupiaq people&hellip;an irreplaceable home to endangered wildlife like polar bears and caribou...


And the fossil fuel industry is killing it.

As climate change intensifies, this fragile ecosystem is warming faster than any other region on Earth. ConocoPhillips is barreling ahead with the dangerous, destructive Willow project in the western Arctic, which will unleash even more carbon pollution into the atmosphere.


And a law passed under the Trump administration mandates that MORE oil lease sales must happen in the Arctic Refuge before this year ends, posing a deadly threat to vulnerable wildlife.


Our window to protect this irreplaceable ecosystem is rapidly closing &ndash; but right now,

your urgent gift to our Earth Month Challenge will go 2X as far to strengthen our work to save the Arctic and other wild places. Don't wait: Donate today and every dollar will immediately DOUBLE in impact, up to $75,000 &ndash; plus we'll send you a FREE sticker to say thanks!


Working alongside Alaska Native communities, including the Gwich'in and Inupiaq people, the Sierra Club is defending the vitally important Arctic landscape from the devastation of oil and gas development.


With your help, we've made major strides. Our campaign targeting corporations helped ensure the most recent lease sale was a failure, with ZERO major fossil fuel companies bidding for a lease. Last fall, after tremendous pressure from Sierra Club members and other activists, the Biden administration canceled all existing leases in the Arctic Refuge.


And when we called on Sierra Club members and supporters to demand they go further with additional protections for the western Arctic &ndash; you responded with over 20,000 comments flooding their inboxes. Now the administration is about to announce a sweeping measure that will block new leasing in more than 10 million acres of land.


Together, our collective action is truly powerful, friend &ndash; and right now your gift will do twice as much to defend the fragile Arctic from oil and gas extraction, push Congress to permanently protect these vital lands, and much more.

Please don't wait: we're running out of time to protect the Arctic. Make your MATCHED gift today and we'll send you a free sticker as a token of our gratitude.


With its vast snowy expanses and unique wildlife, the Arctic is like no other place on Earth. And if we lose it &ndash; we will lose it forever.


friend, I hope you'll join me this Earth Month in doing everything we can to protect this magnificent, icy tundra and the people and animals who depend on it.


Thank you for your support,


Chris Hill
