Problem

While Polar Bears are one of the largest carnivores on earth, they are no match for the forces that are looking to destroy their homeland in Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Big Oil relentlessly lobbies Congress to open the Arctic Refuge to destructive oil exploration and drilling. With Arctic ice already melting rapidly due to global warming, we can’t afford to compound the problem by also devastating vital denning habitat in the Refuge.

The Gift

We must have everyone’s support to stop Congress from handing the home of polar bears and other wildlife over to Big Oil, which will only result in a savings of a penny at the gas pump…and that’s in 20 years! Your gift to Adopt A Polar Bear will help Defenders save polar bears and other imperiled Arctic wildlife.
