SIGN NOW: Help SAVE Polar Bears and STOP Corporate Pollution From Destroying The Arctic!

Polar bears are clinging to survival — their fragile Arctic habitats are RAPIDLY MELTING AWAY, and they are suffering from STARVATION due to the human-driven climate crisis. In fact, the Arctic is warming 3x AS FAST as the rest of the world.

Meanwhile, corporate cruise ship pollution is making this ecological disaster EVEN WORSE by dumping large amounts of toxic chemicals, releasing climate-warming emissions, and polluting sensitive Arctic waters.

As a result, vulnerable polar bears are being pushed closer to the brink of EXTINCTION and local Arctic communities are facing threats to their livelihoods.

We MUST stop the profit-driven cruise industry from destroying the Arctic and threatening all who call this precious region home — before it’s too late!

Dear EPA:

The Arctic is one of the most fragile places on Earth, suffering astronomically from the results of the human-driven climate crisis. As the Earth is warming and temperatures rise, sensitive arctic habitats are melting and shrinking, leaving vulnerable species like polar bears struggling to survive.

The cruise ship industry is making things worse for this ecological disaster in the Arctic by increasing ship traffic with massive vessels that release toxic amounts of climate-warming emissions, emitting disruptive noise pollution that drives fish and critical food sources away, AND dumping toxic chemicals that are seeping into the food chain itself.

Carnival Corporation is one of the worst offenders — carrying 11,000 tons of hazardous heavy fuel oil in a single year through Arctic waters — nearly three times as much as its largest competitor.

I am calling on your agency to take immediate steps to enact stricter regulations and policies to rein in cruise ship pollution in the Arctic in order to protect this region and its wildlife before it's too late.

Sincerely,
