Our wildlife and the habitat they depend on deserve leaders who are good stewards of the land, not beholden to corporate interests. But President Bush, Vice President Cheney, and their anti-wildlife cronies such as Gale Norton and Dirk Kempthorne have made a mess and a mockery of our environmental regulations and wildlife protections.Over the past seven years, the Bush/Cheney Administration has worked to:
- Block meaningful efforts to address climate change now threatening polar bears, penguins and other wildlife.
- Eliminate vital protections for endangered wolves in the Greater Yellowstone Area.
- Roll back protections for millions of acres of roadless areas in our National Forests, paving the way for the destruction of habitat that wolves, grizzly bears and countless other species need to survive.
- Expand destructive oil and gas drilling off our coasts and in sensitive areas such as the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, threatening polar bears, sea otters and other wildlife.
And that's only a partial list!
With less than a year to go, President Bush and his administration should take this opportunity to clean up the mess they have made by supporting comprehensive legislation to address climate change, immediately listing imperiled species such as polar bears and right whales under the Endangered Species Act, and protecting the Arctic National Wildlife and our roadless National Forests.
Send President Bush a farewell message and urge him to spend his last few months in office correcting the damage done by his administration.
