John,

A new report shows that the global mining boom is putting great apes - including gorillas, chimpanzees, and bonobos - at higher risk than we previously understood.

Approximately one-third of Africa’s great apes, or 180,000 total, are currently being threatened by extractive mining industries which can lead to deforestation that extends over 40 miles from the boundaries of the mining area.

Will you donate now to help our SEEC Members in Congress fight back against extractive industries that are destroying these habitats? [[link removed]]

STOP DEFORESTATION » [[link removed]]The relentless pursuit of minerals like gold, diamonds, cobalt, and copper are having devastating impacts on ecosystems where great apes live. The process of extraction not only fragments and destroys their habitats, but also pollutes the environment with harmful chemicals and heavy metals.

While these minerals are crucial for various global industries - including electronics, jewelry, automotive, and energy sectors - we know they also lead to significant environment degradation and habitat loss for wildlife, such as these great apes.

While critical minerals are needed for the energy transition, we must ensure we’re doing so in a sustainable way. Our SEEC Members in Congress are leading the fight to combat the impact of extractive mining industries, stop deforestation, and help prioritize environmental conservation efforts.
