Save the Arctic Wildlife RefugeDestroying this pristine wilderness will do nothing to bring down gas prices or address our addiction to fossil fuels, but it will boost oil company profits.

Save The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge

In the next twenty-four hours, Congress will decide whether or not to open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil drilling for the first time ever. Will they vote to preserve the crown jewel of our nation's wildlife sanctuaries? Or will they bow to Big Oil's relentless drive for profits and industrialize the Refuge? It's up to us to stop them -- and our great-grandchildren are likely to read about this decision in their history books.

Click here to save the Refuge.

We all know that drilling in the Refuge isn't the path to a balanced budget or long-term energy security. The first oil from the Arctic won't be available for at least ten years, and even once this oil reaches the market, the price of a gallon of gasoline would be just one penny lower. We could save eleven times as much oil simply by raising average fuel efficiency standards.

Click here to take action -- it may be your last chance.

Meanwhile, industrial development of the Arctic Refuge will devastate the wildlife that depends on this natural area for survival. Also sacrificed on the altar of oil company profits will be the Gwich'in people, native Alaskans who have depended upon the Porcupine River caribou herd for literally thousands of years.
