Save the Arctic - Stop Shell
The US government just gave giant company Shell the go-ahead to drill in the pristine Arctic for oil, putting our climate and the ocean’s majestic wildlife under grave risk. But there’s a way we can stop this.

Five unlikely local officials hold the key to the climate floodgates. Before Shell can get to the Arctic, they need a key permit from the Port of Seattle, where Shell plans to launch the monster boats to the Arctic. It doesn’t look like Shell has a real backup, and the Port’s Commissioners are still deciding whether to give Shell the permit. That’s where we come in.

The Port of Seattle Commissioners are local figures who are not used to being under the global spotlight. If we build a million-strong call before the Shell rig arrives this week, we can encourage them them to make the most important decision in their lives and give Shell the answer our planet’s future depends on: Drilling in the Arctic? Shell No! Sign now and share widely.
