| Dear Friend, |
| We’re going to court to keep 260 million metric tons of greenhouse gas out of our atmosphere. |
| More than 115,000 Earthjustice supporters told the Biden administration not to allow the largest ever proposed oil and gas undertaking on U.S. public land. But the administration didn’t listen. Instead, it announced it will move forward with the project even though new drilling undercuts the administration’s own climate goals. |
| Now, Earthjustice is suing the Biden administration to stop the destructive Willow Project. We will not let it accelerate the climate crisis and scar public lands. |
| We’ve fought this project before and won. Help us do it again. |
|
|
| ConocoPhillips’ plan includes hundreds of miles of pipelines, dozens of miles of roads, an airstrip, and a gravel mine — all on public lands. It could devastate imperiled wildlife like polar bears, migratory birds, and caribou. It could also jeopardize the health and traditional practices of nearby Alaska Native communities. |
| In 2020, we sued to halt the project and won. The Trump-era permits for the project did not consider the Willow Project’s global climate impact, and our lawsuit forced the Biden administration to review them again before proceeding. |
| But despite its own climate goals and enormous public pressure to reject the project, the administration has chosen to move backwards in time instead of toward a clean‑energy future. |
| As Earthjustice attorneys, we proudly represent our clients free of charge. We will continue to fight these years-long battles to keep the Arctic’s oil safely in the ground, and we depend on your support. |
