The Arctic is warming twice as fast as the rest of the world.
Polar bears are suffering tremendously as climate change and fossil fuel extraction destroy their fragile habitat. If we do nothing, they will go extinct within a few decades.
The sea ice they depend on to hunt is melting. As they're forced to swim further and further in the search for food, they're growing weak and thin.
Even those who manage to feed themselves may not be safe: Mothers and cubs in their dens are in danger of being crushed by large oil company vehicles as they search for drilling sites.
This year alone, we secured vital protections for 13 million acres of wilderness in the Western Arctic. But it's not enough, Supporter, and time is running out.
We must act immediately as sea ice melts and habitats disappear. We're working tirelessly to shut down coal plants, cut pollution, and prevent drilling in the Arctic. We will also protect polar bear habitats, safeguard the Arctic Refuge, and fight alongside communities impacted by the climate crisis.
