                 Vladimir,

                  We've all heard of the Grand Canyon, one of the most 
majestic and famous landmarks in all of the United States. But oil, gas and 
mining companies want to have their way with it. The Bureau of Land 
Management is the agency within the Department of the Interior which 
oversees these public lands. Its job is to protect these lands and conserve 
our natural environment, yet it is planning to sell them off to the highest 
bidder! Sign the petition if you don't want the Bureau of Land Management to 
sell off these protected lands!

                  In Utah, just outside of Arches and Canyonlands national 
parks, the Bureau of Land Management has put 150,000 acres of land up for 
sale for the sole purpose of drilling. This method of getting oil has 
horrifying effects on the landscape — spills can directly kill animals, or 
slowly decimate them by ruining their habits. These lands are home to 
extremely endangered species such as bighorn sheep, whose population could 
be lost forever if we are not careful. From the oil spills you hear about in 
the news to the climate change we are experiencing daily, there is plenty of 
proof that oil companies cannot be trusted with being careful.

                  We cannot waste time twiddling our thumbs over this, 
because Trump and his administration will surely not. Please sign the 
petition and demand that acting director William Perry Pendley halt the sale 
of public lands in the U.S. to the fossil fuel industry immediately!

                  Thank you,

                         Kelsey B.

                  P.S. These 20 million acres of precious earth will not 
recover if we let oil, gas, and mining companies have their way with them. 
Sign the petition!
