ARCTIC ICE CRACKS UNDER GIANT WHITE PAWS. The feet belong to a STARVING POLAR BEAR -- and her Artic habitat is rapidly melting away. With each passing day, hunting for food gets harder and her icy home falls away into endless sea. The Arctic is warming TWICE as fast as the rest of the world and it’s driving polar bears to EXTINCTION! Take immediate action to PROTECT THE ARCTIC!

Meanwhile, corporate cruise vessels cut through the Arctic, making it even harder for polar bears to survive. These titanic ships are responsible for harmful levels of air, water, and noise pollution that drive away fish both polar bears and local communities rely on to survive.  

One of the worst cruise company offenders is also the largest. Carnival Corporation lugged 11,000 tons of toxic heavy fuel through essential arctic habitats in just one year. Without government intervention, a DISASTER is on the horizon. Friend, please DEMAND more oversight of greedy cruise corporations and PROTECT the Arctic from toxic cruise pollution. Add your name by 11:59pm TONIGHT!

Arctic Indigenous communities rely on marine wildlife to sustain themselves and their way of life. Increased shipping traffic and pollution threatens to DRIVE AWAY those resources. And the TOXIC CHEMICALS that cruise ships dump can seep into the food chain and hurt everyone who depends on the ocean’s resources. 

The Arctic is a sensitive ecosystem and corporate cruise ships are damaging that fragile balance! These giant vessels SPEW CLIMATE-WARMING EMISSIONS that speed up melting in the Arctic. Please, Friend, we’re running out of time to reach our goal of 2,732 more signatures. TELL THE EPA to rein in cruise corporations!
