Hi RANDAL,

We could lose two-thirds of the world's polar bears by midcentury, yet the Obama administration is poised to allow oil drilling in the heart of their habitat -- Alaska's Chukchi Sea.

Tell the Bureau of Ocean Management to protect polar bears, not Big Oil »

There are a host of reasons that drilling is a bad idea for the arctic. It disrupts the habits and lives of threatened polar bears, walruses and other wildlife. We have no idea how to deal with an oil spill in the frigid arctic seas. Climate change has already imperiled arctic habitat. Drilling for oil not only wrecks their habitat now, it contributes to the slow destruction of the climate they depend on.

Shell Oil could start drilling in the Chukchi as early as next summer, so we must speak out now.

Speak out for polar bears and voice your opposition to arctic oil drilling »

Thanks for taking action!
