I've just asked the Canadian government to protect the Arctic from a tragedy like the one in the Gulf of Mexico. Currently, there are no known mechanisms for cleaning up an oil spill in the harsh, icy waters of the Arctic.
Please call on the federal government to halt offshore drilling for oil until or unless we can safeguard our environment, our marine species, and our coastal communities.
Join me and WWF-Canada in petitioning our government to reduce the risk to Canada's Arctic. Take action at WWF Canada.
You can help strengthen the call to protect the Arctic by telling your friends. Click on the permanent link (The date at the bottom of this post), and forward that URL to all of your friends! Thanks for helping! The Inuit and wildlife thank you!
