Your Signature Is Needed: Ripple is dead, and now there are only 73 orcas in the Southern Resident pods

 
 
 

BREAKING: Another Southern Resident Killer Whale is presumed dead, leaving ONLY 73 of these CRITICALLY ENDANGERED ORCAS remaining!

We are still mourning the tragic losses of Cappuccino and Marina from last year -- and now, young Ripple is declared dead by researchers.

Orcas are already at high risk of extinction, and yet the greedy fossil fuel industry continues to make it harder for this endangered species to survive. Big Oil's massive push to extract and export its toxic products encroaches on native orca territory, causing dangerous amounts of toxic noise, air, and water pollution. These disruptions to orcas' sensitive habitat limit their navigation abilities and drive away key food sources like the Chinook salmon -- leading to STARVATION. These destructive projects also significantly put orcas at risk of deadly oil spills.

If we are going to save endangered orcas from extinction, we must END corporate ocean pollution NOW. Will you add your name to help STOP the fossil fuel industry from threatening the survival of Southern Resident orcas?

The Southern Resident pods are down to ONLY 73 living orcas. When one of their family members, like young Ripple, dies, the rest of the pod's chances of survival decreases -- their grief can actually drive them into further starvation.

This endangered population is at a tipping point. Even if an orca were to become pregnant, 69% of pregnant Southern Resident whales lose their babies before birth, and it's estimated that up to 50% of calves don't survive their first year. Without enough food, both mother and baby will become malnourished and cannot survive.

Orcas are suffering, grieving, and starving to death -- and we can't let Big Oil's corporate greed destroy any hope of recovering this precious species. Please, Friend, take action now by adding your name to PROTECT ORCAS from corporate ocean pollution before it's too late for these beloved whales >>

Thanks for protecting orcas with us,
Friends of the Earth
