Jerry Brown: Protect our Arctic
The Arctic is a truly special place, but it is under threat from rising temperatures, oil drilling, and industrial fishing. We ask that you use your status as a leader to endorse the International Declaration on the Future of the Arctic. This charter demands action on Indigenous Peoples’ rights, climate change, oil drilling, and unsustainable fishing. Learn more at ArcticDeclaration.org, and please sign on today
Why is this important?
Green peace is launching awareness for the exploitation of the Arctic. Up until now we have managed to keep multinational oil corporations out of this area, but now it is our job to make sure they are permanently protected. The Arctic is an amazing place, home to whales, polar bears, and other amazing creatures. We need to act now to protect it for future generations!
