Tell Congress to Oppose Offshore Drilling

There's a lot of speculation these days over who is to blame for our rising gas prices. But one thing is for certain: drilling for oil off our coasts won't get us out of this predicament. Yet the threat of offshore drilling, and its disastrous environmental effects, could become a reality if Congress votes to lift a longstanding ban on new offshore drilling in the coming weeks. We need your help to make sure that doesn't happen. Tell Congress to keep the ban on offshore drilling intact!

Save the Majestic Roan Plateau

You can help save an oasis of life in Colorado from being transformed into an oil and gas field. At the foot of the Roan Plateau is a pockmarked vision of its future if the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) succeeds in leasing away 55,000 acres of public lands for industrial oil and gas drilling. The threat of losing the Roan to industrialization has wrought a coalition of protest. Join the movement! Your comments can help preserve the Roan's natural beauty and wildlife.

Urge the BLM to halt the lease sale!

Protect Our Oceans and Fisheries

Fisheries are collapsing, runoff pollution is creating vast dead zones, and global warming is causing the death of corals. Yet the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), the very federal agency charged with managing and protecting our oceans, is proposing a new approach to fisheries management that would limit the public's right to participate and allow increased depletion of ocean resources without adequate analysis of the consequences.

Urge the NMFS to withdraw this proposal!

Keep America's Crown Jewel Off the Chopping Block

The Tongass National Forest in southeastern Alaska is the crown jewel of our nation's wild forests. At 17 million acres, the Tongass is home to a stunning variety of wildlife, including wild salmon, bears, eagles, and wolves. This key piece of our natural heritage should be preserved for future generations to enjoy, yet the Bush administration wants to open up 2.3 million acres of Tongass backcountry for roads and clearcut logging.

Tell the Forest Service to protect our forests before it's too late!

Restore The Clean Water Act!

Right now, Congress is considering the Clean Water Restoration Act, important legislation that clarifies that federal safeguards against water pollution must protect all waters of the United States. Now is the time to tell Congress to stand up for clean water and support the Clean Water Restoration Act!

Tell Congress to stand up for clean water!

Keep Our Families Safe From Harmful Chemicals

The Kid Safe Chemicals Act of 2008 will require tough, effective and enforceable standards to shield us from chemical hazards at home, at the office, in schools, and elsewhere... from children's toys to kitchen cleaners, and even chemicals accumulating in mothers' milk and the bloodstreams of newborns.

Tell Congress to support the Kid Safe Chemicals Act of 2008!

Protect Polar Bears Left Out in the Cold

The Polar Bear Seas Protection Act seeks to protect critical polar bear habitats until essential environmental impact questions are answered and the Department of the Interior clearly designates critical, protected habitats.

Let Congress know you want "real" protections for polar bears!
