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.

Please save our Snow Foxes, Caribou, Migratory Birds and especially our slowly diminishing Polar Bears due to the devastation in one way or another of our wild animals habitats all over the U.S.. Just one question............WHEN IS MAN GOING TO STOP DESTROYING THE HABITATS OF MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF WILD ANIMALS?

This country must become a sanctuary!!!

Alternate fuel sources can always be found, if there is a will. But these wonderful and innocent creatures will be wiped out forever if Man continues to despoil their natural habitat. Where will THEY go when we are done? We can always dispense with a little comfort to make do with less oil. Please save them with a permanent ban on drilling in the Arctic.

I feel real pain at the US government and industry/corporate realm's casual disregard for the natural world. After all we are humans, we have dominion. Well, I believe that that dominion means that we are responsible for our individual and governmental footsteps on Earth and our honor and respect for ALL life. It is our duty to care for these other species with whom we share this planet aware that a reasonable, respectful balance, now tragically unequal for them, is essential between us. But, corporations have no compassion and we are being ruled by the corporate/industry power, money and influence. I ask my US Representative to continue to be a voice of caution and reason and to permanently protect the artic refuge, the only home to many important and amazing species, caribou, snow fox, and millions of migratory birds, and this is the only onshore critical denning habitat for America's vanishing polar bears.
