Polar Bears Need Real Help
Breaking news The Bush/Cheney Administration has just
listed the polar bear as threatened under the
Endangered Species Act (ESA), after four months of
delays. Unfortunately, it could be an empty gesture,
lacking in any meaningful protections for polar bears. With this listing, the administration has failed to:
* designate critical habitat for polar bears
* stop destructive oil drilling in prime polar bear habitat
* require specific steps to be taken to address global warming
and its disastrous effect on Arctic sea ice and polar bears' survival. Tell the Bush administration: polar bears need REAL
help, not this empty listing! In his announcement today, Interior Secretary Kempthorne
made clear that this listing should not be used to address
global warming or habitat loss -- the two main factors
contributing to the decline of polar bears in the U.S. This week's listing is already coming at the eleventh
hour for polar bears -- these majestic bears can't
wait for another administration. Stand up with our partner
Defenders of Wildlife to demand REAL
protections with a meaningful ESA listing for
America's polar bears! Thank you for taking action today,
