We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit AudubonAction.The short explanation of this alert was:
The Boreal Forest of North America is the summer breeding ground for over 300 species of birds we see in the U.S. and Canada, including sparrows, warblers, woodpeckers, and the endangered Whooping Crane. Now, these birds and our environment are under threat.
International oil companies are on a fast track to construct oil and gas pipelines through the Boreal Forest—the last unspoiled forest on Earth.
These pipelines will fuel the Alberta Tar Sands, the dirtiest oil extraction process on Earth, which produces 3 times as much greenhouse gas as conventional oil production, accelerating global warming.
Canadian officials have proposals in front of them right now to protect the Boreal Forest. Send a letter today urging them to protect this treasure, and put a moratorium on Tar Sands expansion, before any pipeline is built! Personalized letters are the most effective. Please edit the sample letter below to tell Canada's Prime Minister Harper why protecting the Boreal Forest is important to YOU.
