Tell Secretary Salazar No New Drilling in the Arctic

Secretary of Interior Ken Salazar is finalizing a five-year plan for new oil and gas leases that could open the Chukchi and Beaufort Seas--the Polar Bear Seas--to risky new oil and gas drilling. The oil and gas industry has not demonstrated that it has the ability to prevent a spill or the capacity to clean it up.

Please take action now to protect polar bears, bowhead whales and walrus from a catastrophic oil spill. Tell Secretary Salazar no new drilling in the Arctic until the oil and gas industry demonstrates that they can effectively respond to a spill in this remote, icy environment.
