The Boreal Forest…it’s just as enchanting, just as pristine and ancient as it sounds. Home to a vast and stunning array of wildlife, it has been one of the safest places on the planet for threatened species like wolves.
Until now.
With tar sands oil extraction seeping into wilderness areas, wolves’ last refuge is at risk – and the Keystone XL oil pipeline would force them into even more dangerous territory to escape aerial shooting near the mines.
Right now, we’re closing in on the end of the long road to stop TransCanada and Keystone XL – and our last hurdle is proving to President Obama that the majority of Americans oppose the pipeline. We can do it – but I’m going to need you with me.
I urgently need your help to protect the Boreal Forest – and the wolves who live there, along with all the people who will face toxic drinking water if Keystone XL is approved.
Tar sands are destructive at every stage of their production, from the ravaged Boreal Forest of Northern Canada to the choked communities in refining corridors across America.
And it’s not just wildlife we’re fighting for – our own survival depends on it.
