Friend,
There is a brutal situation emerging in the Arctic right now and it's why I'm asking for your help. Picture this: polar bear cubs, stumbling across fragile ice with their mother, hungry and weak, desperately searching for sustenance and sanctuary. They are a family literally walking on thin ice, but through NO FAULT OF THEIR OWN.
Their very existence hangs in the balance as the Arctic warms at an alarming rate, a staggering FOUR TIMES faster than the rest of our ailing planet. This crisis leaves these endangered animals facing the cruel choice of drowning in collapsing ice beds or succumbing to the agony of starvation.
I'm reaching out to you with an urgent plea to help these iconic animals. They are the victims of human greed and our insatiable drive for more.
BUT YOU ARE NOT PART OF THE HUMAN PROBLEM. YOU ARE PART OF THE HUMAN SOLUTION!
In the face of the daunting challenges posed by climate change, you wield extraordinary power — the power of your voice. Each spoken word, each shared concern, and each signature on a petition is part of the human force for positive change.
When you raise your voice to address the urgent issue of climate change, you are not only advocating for the health of our planet. You are becoming a champion for the survival of polar bears. By joining together, sharing knowledge, and demanding decisive action, WE CAN SHAPE POLICIES, INFLUENCE DECISION-MAKERS, AND INSPIRE A GLOBAL MOVEMENT TOWARDS A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE.
It is through the resonance of thousands of voices like yours that we WILL forge a path towards protecting the Arctic, preserving polar bear habitats, and ultimately mitigating the impacts of climate change for the benefit of both nature and humanity.
I implore you to be the human voice that resounds against the human forces of destruction, to stand with us as part of the solution.
But don't take this action only for polar bears. Do it for the people of the Arctic too.
The communities who call the Arctic home are bearing the brunt of the profound impacts wrought by climate change. Arctic people and wildlife have deep connections to the land and its intricate ecosystems. But they are facing dire threats as the Arctic transforms at an unprecedented rate. The thawing permafrost disrupts traditional hunting and fishing practices. Rising temperatures destabilize ice formations, jeopardizing safe travel routes that have been navigated for generations.
CLIMATE CHANGE IS A REAL PART OF LIFE FOR PEOPLE IN THE ARCTIC; IT IS A DAILY FACT RESHAPING THE FABRIC OF THEIR LIVES AND CHALLENGING THE RESILIENCE OF THESE COMMUNITIES AS THEY FACE AN UNCERTAIN FUTURE.
Yet, despite all the threats to the people and wildlife of the Arctic, we're still drilling for oil there RIGHT NOW!
The Arctic faces a relentless assault by the callous hands of the fossil fuel industry. The delicate ecosystem is being torn apart for the insatiable pursuit of profit through oil drilling and fracking. Unpredictable conditions mean high risks of a catastrophic oil spills. And drilling creates toxic substances that CONTAMINATE and DESTROY the land, food, and water sources that wildlife and nearby residents rely on.
Arctic drilling goes against protections listed under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) — a law that requires federal agencies to assess the environmental effects of any proposed actions. This includes an evaluation of any social and economic impacts on nearby residents, like the Indigenous communities in the Arctic.
Now is the time for action, a call to arms against the climate crisis that looms over the Arctic. I urgently ask you to join me as I seek out 4,827 more compassionate souls, to lend your name to this action. Please act before the looming deadline at 11:59 P.M. on January 20th. Stand beside us and add your name to the pages of change!
Drilling in the Arctic is a risk we cannot afford.
Friend, it's going to take PEOPLE POWER to save people, polar bears, and the planet from corporate greed. SIGN NOW to tell President Biden to oppose oil and gas development in the Arctic immediately! >>
Thank you for taking action,
Friends of the Earth
