John,

The Arctic is threatened by a massive oil-drilling project.

Will you help stop it? [link removed]

Proposed for the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska, ConocoPhillips’ gargantuan “Willow” project would include up to 250 wells, hundreds of miles of ice roads, more than 380 miles of pipelines, an airstrip, a gravel mine and a processing plant. It would destroy essential habitat for polar bears, migratory birds, caribou, and other species. Its countless trucks could crush mother polar bears and cubs in their dens.

The project will cause more oil spills and toxic air pollution, threatening Indigenous communities on Alaska’s North Slope. And it would be a climate disaster, potentially producing an estimated 26 billion gallons of oil over the next 30 years.

A federal court threw out the Trump administration’s approval of the Willow oil development project in Alaska’s Western Arctic because it hadn’t fully considered the serious environmental destruction the project would cause. Unfortunately the Biden administration is now considering whether to reapprove the project — without doing a thorough analysis of its own.

We can’t let this monstrosity cause immense harm to the Arctic. Tell the Biden administration to reject ConocoPhillips' Willow project. [link removed]
