John,

Big Oil’s allies in Congress recently forced the Biden administration to give away even more ocean habitat for oil and gas drilling. This is bad news for every living thing on Earth — including two severely endangered whale species at opposite corners of the United States.

Urge the Biden administration to phase out production of oil and gas on all offshore leases. [link removed]

A massive lease sale in Alaska threatens the home of the last remaining Cook Inlet belugas with more oil spills and harmful noise pollution. And two huge sales in the Gulf of Mexico threaten the last Rice’s whales, of whom fewer than 100 remain.

With the climate emergency in full swing, we need healthy, resilient ocean ecosystems — and protecting imperiled marine mammals is a critical part of achieving that. The administration still has the power to give these beloved whales hope by reining in oil production and ensuring that offshore drilling is phased out entirely.

Tell the U.S. Department of the Interior to close the fossil fuel floodgates and protect key ocean habitat. [link removed]
