Protect Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park from Mining Proposals
Target: The Honorable Michael H. Wilson, Canadian Ambassador to the U.S.
Sponsored by: Care2
Sponsored by: Care2
Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park, which spans the border between Montana and Canada, is a globally significant biological hotspot, protecting elk, moose, deer, mountain goats, bull trout and a host of other wildlife and plant species. It is also one of the most intact and diverse ecosystems in this type of climate in the world.
But multiple proposals for mountain-top removal coal mines and coalbed methane extraction in this area are threatening this pristine area. These include Cline Mining's Lodgepole Mine, which the U.S. State Department has opposed due to "significant adverse impacts."
We need to make sure this area is protected. Please send a letter to the Honorable Michael H. Wilson, Canadian Ambassador to the U.S. and tell him you want this area to be safe from mining.

How can you consider further damaging our ailing Earth by allowing more poisoning to occur. Help our planet heal, don't hurt her worse.

Mining is almost always bad for the health of this planet, and usually unnecessary to sustain life on Earth. Removing the tops of mountains in the area would result in such an ugly visage that I doubt many visitors would remain. And at least people can choose not to come. The wildlife that lives there has no choice. Only criminals destroy someone's home without their permission.
