Urgent! 118,000 Oil and Gas Rigs Threaten Wild Lands
Keep O&G Rigs Out of America's Special Places
There are wild lands in America that are just too special to touch. But the Bush administration is planning to litter them with 118,000 new oil and gas wells – an accelerated drilling plan that threatens one million acres of western public lands!
Some amazing places - like Utah's Redrock Wilderness, the Rocky Mountain Front, and the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge - are at risk. This is not the path to energy independence - it's a path to destruction.
Before it's too late, help us guard against these threats.
Join us in sending an urgent message to the Interior Department!

By taking action, you will join thousands of other Americans in sending the administration a powerful message: We want to be a nation with pristine landscapes that our kids and grandkids will enjoy for years to come.
The Bush administration is hoping to accelerate oil and gas development on public lands, installing 118,000 oil and gas wells over the next two decades. We cannot let America's wild places suffer the backlash of overly aggressive oil and gas plans.
One million acres of public lands are at risk.
Tell the Department of Interior that they're supposed to guard our public lands, not drill irresponsibly on them.

We don't dispute that there are places where it is appropriate to drill, but it must be done at a slower pace. Moreover, energy efficiency, renewable energy, and conservation must play larger roles in the nation's energy policy.
Thank you,
