To President Putin and other Antarctic Commission leaders:

As citizens from countries around the world, we respectfully call on you to act now to create the East Antarctic Marine Protected Area, a precious habitat for penguins and other incredible species. We urge you to make this a top diplomatic priority to ensure this marine sanctuary is designated before it's too late.

Putin: Protect the Penguins
Scientists just released a tragic report -- just two baby penguin chicks have survived starvation in a colony of tens of thousands in Antarctica.

This devastation has only happened once before in 50 years. Now the scientists are urgently calling for this region to be protected. 23 countries are basically onboard, but only one can make it happen: 

Russia.

The countries are meeting right now. We've helped move Russia to champion Antarctic protection before. We can do it again, but we have to make this massive fast to get our voices into the conference before it ends!
