URGENT ACTION NEEDED: The Arctic is warming TWICE as fast as the rest of the world, and polar bear habitats are melting away!

Polar bears in the Arctic are already struggling to survive. The sea ice they rely on is melting rapidly due to global warming, and they are dying from starvation due to human-driven climate change.

The last thing these vulnerable bears need is massive cruise ships bulldozing through their fragile habitat. But that’s exactly what greedy cruise corporations are doing, sending giant ships into the Arctic, bringing dirty oil and harmful noise pollution -- and threatening polar bear existence. Please, Friend, will you add your name now to protect Arctic polar bears before we lose this treasured species forever?

Big Cruise’s gigantic ships generate loud noise pollution that drives fish and other marine creatures away from the Arctic, leading to a lack of essential food sources for polar bears and contributing to their STARVATION.

And these destructive cruise ships carry colossal amounts of chemical waste with them, too. Carnival Corp. is the worst culprit lugging 11,000 TONS of toxic heavy fuel oil in a single year through the Arctic, threatening the entire ecosystem with a toxic oil spill -- which means that even when polar bears are able to locate what’s left of the scarce food, it could very likely be POISONED.

Polar bears are one of the most beloved animals and a symbol of the Arctic wilderness, but these iconic mammals are dying out rapidly and being driven to EXTINCTION. We must take urgent action and hold the corporate cruise industry accountable for their shady practices that are threatening to DESTROY the Arctic forever. Sign the petition now to DEMAND the federal government REIN IN corporate cruise pollution in the Arctic! >>

Thanks for being a voice for arctic polar bears,
Friends of the Earth
