The Arctic's rich marine environment is the least understood area in the world. There is a lack of basic science – from simple species counts of endangered marine mammals to information about currents and tidal systems. The Department of Interior (DOI) must not move forward with decisions about drilling before it has critical missing data.
Protect the vast, pristine place at the top of the world that polar bears, whales, walrus, seals, and Alaska Native communities all call home from corperate interests of Shell Oil.
Do not permit Shell Oil to drill ten wells in America’s Arctic over the next two years.
