Greenpeace - Tell President Obama to keep oil companies out of the Arctic


Tell President Obama to keep oil companies out of the Arctic

take action today!Right now, President Obama is considering whether or not to open up more of the Alaskan Arctic for oil drilling by launching a new round of lease sales for the Chukchi Sea.

What's at stake here isn't just one of the most beautiful, unspoiled places on earth. But the future of our climate. A few weeks ago the president made a bold climate promise to the American people, stating that he would not condemn our generation and future generations to a planet that is beyond fixing.

This Arctic lease sale could start any day now! In order to get the President's attention we need to flood the White House with urgent messages telling them to cancel this sale.

Take action today and join our campaign to protect the Arctic. Tell President Obama that we can’t stop global climate change by opening up more of the Arctic for oil drilling.

Sign the Petition: Don't Frack Public Lands

Delicate Arch in Arches National Park Utah
Delicate Arch, Utah
Arches National Park is part of the Colorado River watershed and surrounded by BLM lands being targeted by the oil and gas industry
One of the things that makes America great is our vast and cherished spaces. Millions of acres across our beautiful country are public, they belong to us — the American people. This land is your land! But this land, and many of our favorite iconic landscapes, are under threat from fracking.

The Obama Administration recently proposed new rules for oil and gas fracking on federal lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) — including those in the national forest system, and federal lands that are nearby many treasured national parks.

The BLM's proposed rules are weak, at best, and pave the way for corporate profits at the expense of our American treasures and essential resources. The BLM is seeking public comments on the proposed rules. Tell them Don't Frack Public Lands! Deadline for comments is August 23rd.
Please fill out the form below and edit the message as you wish. We'll add your name to the petition and submit the additional message to BLM as a public comment.

Save the Cameroon Rainforest | Greenpeace Africa

Stop Herakles Farms' project

A US company is planning to tear down a huge chunk of Cameroonian rainforest for its palm oil project.
This particular area of forest is home to thousands of people who stand to lose their land if the project goes ahead. It is also home to endangered wildlife like African forest elephants and the chimpanzees.
Send an email below to the CEO of Herakles Farms, demanding that the company drops its palm oil plans in Cameroon.
