Urge Congress to Permanently Protect the Arctic Refuge!
Target: U.S. House of Representatives
Sponsored by: Care2
Sponsored by: Care2
The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is home to caribou, snow fox and millions of migratory birds. It is also the most important onshore denning habitat for America's vanishing polar bears.
But this natural treasure is constantly under siege. Time and time again, the oil industry and their allies in Congress have sought to open this special place to harmful new drilling, threatening all of the wildlife that depend on it for survival.
And now President Bush has called for drilling in the Arctic Refuge by 2010 in his new budget proposal!
We need to permanently protect the Arctic Refuge! Urge your Representative to support the Udall-Eisenhower Arctic Wilderness Act (H.R. 39) to permanently protect the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

Will Bush ever cease his Distruction of OUR country ?

for mine and your children to not just hear stories of the great white bear that once was king of the arctic.

Leadership is to lead and to educate the public! More oil just feed the hunger for even more oil. What about global warming? What about leave to our children a better world? This is real family value!

It is time we STOP supporting the glutenous Oil & Gas and Coal Industries. We have to GO GREEN for our planet and our health. Stop wasting time!

It's barbaric to think about despoiling this pristine land to root about for a dead-end energy source. Please be future-minded – preserve this land for future generations.

We all should know how wrong it is to drill in our wilderness. When will the madness stop? When will we put our resources into wind and solar power ?

If Bush wants to drill for oil let him do it in his own backyard in Crawford. Save the Artic Refuge

we need to learn how to depend on other sources instead of ruining this earth to use what we already know because its easy.
