Usinsk, Russia — Oil from Russian drilling operations gushes from damaged pipelines directly into local rivers. Trees are left dead and black. The rivers which serve as the only source of drinking water for many in the area is heavily polluted. The local Komi people claim their traditional way of life has been made close to impossible.

  1. Dear devotees,

    The Arctic feels very far away, so it might surprise you to know that the health of the Arctic ice affects all of our lives – regardless of where on the planet we live.

    By reflecting the sun’s rays off its ice, the Arctic shapes our weather patterns and the food we grow and eat. Each and every one of us is affected by the health of the Arctic.

    Sign our petition and ask world leaders to create a global sanctuary in the Arctic. »

    The Arctic is in crisis, which means the health of our entire planet is in crisis. If we don’t act soon, we will be unable to reverse the damage and make our planet healthy again.

    There is a way you can help. Join the call for a global sanctuary in the Arctic! »
