ACTION ALERT: Urge Congress to Protect the Arctic

TAKE ACTION: [link removed]



The Arctic region of Alaska supports communities, a diversity of wildlife, and tens of millions of migratory birds—but it’s under threat. Take action to protect it today.

America’s Arctic contains the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and the Western Arctic, also known as the National Petroleum Reserve–Alaska. The Arctic Refuge is the largest national wildlife refuge in the United States, and the habitats of the Western Arctic support Important Bird Areas of global importance. These pristine public lands represent some of the most critical bird habitats on the planet.

But now, Congress is considering a resolution that would remove conservation protections in the Western Arctic and open these areas and the Arctic Refuge to oil drilling.

Tell your members of Congress to protect America’s Arctic. Take Action: [link removed]

Yellow-billed Loons, Snow Geese, Trumpeter Swans, and hundreds of other species, including caribou and polar bears, rely on the habitats found in the Arctic region. The Arctic Refuge and areas like Teshekpuk Lake, the most ecologically important wetlands complex in America’s Arctic, have been protected for decades. These landscapes support wildlife crucial to the continuation of cultural and subsistence practices for Indigenous peoples who live in the region. They should be protected from industrial development.

Contact your members of Congress and ask them to uphold protections for America’s Arctic.
