Picture this: a fluffy bird struts across brush-covered plains, tail feathers fanning out like sunrays. This is the Greater Sage-Grouse, an icon of the American west known for its unique courtship displays. But fracking and other dirty projects have shrunk the sage-grouse’s range to half its original size. Big Polluters are poised to get new leases to frack in Utah, DESTROYING this bird’s habitat and further threatening the animals!

Fracking can trigger earthquakes and poison communities. The wastewater can even contain RADIOACTIVE waste! If Big Polluters get free rein to frack on public lands, both people and threatened species are at risk! Friend, stop Big Polluters from poisoning communities and wildlife before it’s too late! Add your name by 11:59pm TONIGHT!

People exposed to fracking face increased risk of cardiac problems, birth defects, and childhood leukemia. What’s more, the resulting smell of rotten eggs can trigger BLISTERING headaches. Big Polluters will rake in profits while communities suffer if this lease sale goes through.

We’re running out of time to protect Utah’s public lands, communities and wildlife from FRACKING! But YOU still have a chance to stop Big Polluters from getting their oil-stained hands on public lands. If just 4,043 more people take action, you can help protect communities and wildlife habitat. Stand up to Big Polluters and keep our public lands safe by 11:59pm TONIGHT!
