FEATURED ACTION:
Protect America's Arctic Ocean from oil and gas drilling once and for all!

Send a message today!

There is a 75 percent chance that one or more large oil spills will occur if Shell's Arctic drilling plans get approved.

That's right, a 75 percent chance! This is according to the Obama administration's own study. Once the oil is spilled, hundreds of miles of sea ice, dark winters, and the harsh cold will make an oil spill nearly impossible to clean up. The administration also admits that drilling "could result in the loss of large numbers of polar bears."

The government is seeking comments right now about the environmental risks associated Shell's plans for oil and gas drilling in the Chukchi Sea.

Tell the administration to halt drilling in the Arctic once and for all.
