President Trump Opens Vast Reserve In Alaska For Drilling!

If you followed the global news in the past 24 months, you will be well aware that the US President is a climate change denier and is taking every measure possible to destroy this planet, as well as the legacy of his predecessor, Mr. Obama.

The latest attempt to it is to open a huge reserve situated in Alaska to be used for drilling. To me, it comes as no surprise. The question is how can we stop this lunatic in the White House from destroying the environment?

In a filing with significant environmental impact, the Interior Department's Bureau of Land Management (BLM) took a crucial step to holding a gas and oil lease sale for a territory that encompasses over 1.6 million acres.

The refuge is home to polar bear, wolves, migratory birds and the Porcupine caribou hear - a unique species that doesn't deserve to perish. Instead, this wonderful scenery would be replaced by concrete, massive pipelines, roads, seawater-treatment plants and large storage units.

Obviously, the voiceless inhabitants of this beautiful land have no say in this matter. But is acceptable?

We, the undersigned, believe that the decision to allow drilling in Alaska would have catastrophic consequences for the entire world and should stay off limits. Alaska residents themselves are against such plans, they why should they be carried out?

Please sign the petition and ensure Alaska - the territory bought from the Russian for $7.2 million in 1867 - remains pristine!
 
 
 
 
This is how Alaska should look like
 
 
Studies indicate that the proposed drilling would cause extinctions in the Alaskan refuge
 
 
The US Bureau of Land Management announced plans to offer oil and gas drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge at the beginning of 2020
