Dear John,

President-Elect Biden made historic campaign promises to address the climate
crisis -- starting with an end to new fossil fuel extraction on our public lands
and waters. Now, it’s time to urge him to act on his promises. Demand Joe Biden protect our wild places from Big Oil.

The federal government has exposed some of our most iconic wild places and
surrounding critical habitat to the fossil fuel and mining industries -- from
the Grand Canyon to Yosemite National Park to the Arctic National Wildlife
Refuge. Big Oil and Gas could devastate wildlife, pollute the water and air, and
compromise the health of local communities. It could push threatened wildlife,
like bald eagles, greater sage grouse, and elk closer to extinction.

Biden could put an end to this destruction. On his first day in office, he could
institute a moratorium all new oil and gas extraction on federal lands and
waters. But we need your help to push him to act.

Sign now: Demand President-Elect Biden halt new fossil fuel extraction in our
most iconic wild places.

rigs and drillers into the fragile habitats of threatened creatures. Wildlife is pushed from their homes and the water they depend on is poisoned. Hundreds of thousands of acres of public land are at risk throughout the
country.

What’s more, protecting public lands is crucial for addressing the climate
crisis. The extraction and burning of fossil fuels from public lands and water
accounts for nearly a quarter of U.S. climate emissions. A halt on new leasing
is one of the most impactful ways the President-Elect could rein in
climate-disrupting emissions.

We need your help, John, to send a strong message to
the Biden Administration and demand it protect our planet from big polluters.

Protect our wildlife from Big Oil. Tell the Biden administration to issue a
moratorium on oil and gas leases on Day One in office!

to allow the fossil fuel industry to destroy our public lands and the planet for
the sake of profit. It is time to take a stand to protect the Earth for our
children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren, and beyond.

We’re up against powerful foes in the oil and gas industry. They’re pushing the
Biden administration to allow them to drill and mine, no matter the destruction
to people, wildlife, or our planet.

There is no time to waste. Public lands must be a top priority to protect our
planet and our collective futures. Together, we can push President-Elect Joe
Biden to issue the moratorium day 1. Will you join us?

Protect our Earth for future generations. Demand Joe Biden halt new oil and gas
extraction on public lands and waters.
