Dear NRDC Activist,

Earlier this year, the Biden administration temporarily suspended Trump's
leases for drilling in the iconic Arctic National Wildlife Refuge — but
this was far from a permanent halt to reckless drilling in the Refuge, and
the powerful oil and gas industry knows it.

They will stop at nothing to rip open these pristine wildlands and suck as
much profit out of the ground as they can at the expense of the region's
Indigenous communities, wildlife, and ecosystems. We can't let that
happen.

Wildlife Refuge and other wild places from dangerous drilling by making a
tax-deductible gift today — even just $5
helps! Every donation will be TRIPLE MATCHED
until December 31, up to $400,000, to help us win this fight and defend
our environment on all fronts.

[ [link removed] ]YOUR GIFT MATCHED 3X

There is so much at stake if the fossil fuel industry gets its way.
Drilling in the Arctic Refuge would destroy the natural values that are
critical to the Gwich'in and the Indigenous communities that stand with
them. And it would be a death sentence for Arctic wildlife like gray
wolves, musk oxen, caribou, and imperiled polar bears.

The Arctic is melting at unprecedented levels as the region warms three
times faster than the rest of planet. There's no question: drilling here
would exacerbate an already dire climate crisis.

At NRDC, we're doing everything in our power to secure permanent
protections for this special place and the people and wildlife that rely
on it.

[ [link removed] ]But
we need your support. We're running out of time to prevent the oil and gas
industry from pillaging the Arctic Refuge and making the climate crisis
even worse. Please give before midnight on December 31 to have your gift
MATCHED THREE TIMES. Even $5 has the impact of
$15!

Thank you for everything you do to power our vital work — we couldn't do
any of this without you.

Sincerely,

Garett Rose
Senior Policy Advocate, Nature, NRDC

Donations will be used to fight climate change and for other campaigns
that allow NRDC to protect the environment in the most effective way
possible.
