The Trump admin finalized rules that eliminate protections for threatened wildlife and prioritize economic interests over science, giving industry greater influence over whether critical habitat is protected or destroyed. Earthjustice will not let this go unchallenged.

Tomorrow, the Trump admin will announce the results of an oil and gas lease sale in the Arctic Refuge. We’re fighting back in court.​ This is another effort to sell out our public lands to boost corporate profits, while Indigenous communities, wildlife, and future generations carry the risk.​

The Arctic's permafrost stores vast amounts of carbon. Disturbing it to extract oil and gas, combined with more burning of fossil fuels, releases greenhouse gases and accelerates global warming, harming wildlife and people. Drilling in the Arctic isn’t worth the risk.
