To: President Biden

No new fossil fuel infrastructure!

We urge you to stop any new fossil fuel infrastructure, including the Line 3 project, offshore oil drilling, and other projects that would lead to the extraction of fossil fuels.

Why is this important?

A major oil spill recently oozed crude oil into the Pacific Ocean and damaged wildlife on beaches in Southern California.

It's another terrible reminder of the damage done by fossil fuel extraction. From oil spills to drought, fires, hurricanes, and more, it's clear that fossil fuel infrastructure is too big a risk. If we want to avoid the worst of climate catastrophe, we need to stop building new fossil fuel infrastructure as soon as possible.

Scientists have made it incredibly clear: the worst impacts of climate catastrophe are just on the horizon. Pollution and wildfire smoke are causing asthma attacks in children. Across the globe, over 200 million people could be displaced by climate crises in the next thirty years.

When the dangers of fossil fuel dependence are so obvious, there is no reason why President Biden should be allowing new fossil fuel projects to move forward.
