The Arctic is not Trump's to sell

Hi John, The Trump administration has hung a "For Sale" sign on America's public lands and waters in Alaska. It's holding lease sales for oil and gas projects across millions of acres of irreplaceable landscapes, home to polar bears, caribou herds, migratory birds, and many other species. T…

Say no to Trump’s plan to clearcut Oregon’s old-growth forests

John, The majestic old-growth forests of the Pacific Northwest are precious. They’re home to unique endangered species like northern spotted owls, marbled murrelets, and coho salmon. They absorb and store vast amounts of carbon dioxide, offer recreation and wonderment to people, and filter our ai…

We won't be silenced by Congress

Hi John, Far-right congressmen are attacking the Center for Biological Diversity. They're targeting us because we're a fierce, outspoken force against multinational corporations seeking to plunder the wild. They want to shut us down so public lands can be sold for profit and places like the…

John, Fish Lake Valley tui chubs are rare fish found in only two places in Nevada: one remaining spring in their native range and a pond where they were introduced. All but one of the half-dozen springs where they evolved has dried up, after decades of alfalfa growing and other agriculture draine…
