Bank of America is continuing to fund the destruction of the
Arctic Refuge. It must stop financing oil drilling, now!
Sign Now
Right now, Bank of America remains the only major American
bank that has not refused to fund dangerous oil drilling in the Arctic
Refuge. The Arctic Refuge's vast coastal lands, boreal forests, and alpine
tundra are home to a diverse array of species including polar bears, musk
oxen, Arctic foxes, and the iconic Porcupine Caribou Herd. It's also vital
to Indigenous communities who have made their home on these sacred lands for
thousands of years. Drilling in the Refuge is a violation of Indigenous
rights and an assault on the irreplaceable wildlife that rely on these lands
for survival.
As we face the increasingly horrific impacts of climate
change — unprecedented wildfires, hurricanes, droughts, and floods — we have
to face the facts. We are causing climate change, and we need to be
transitioning over to clean, sustainable energy sources in order to reverse
this trend. That's why every other large American bank, including Goldman
Sachs, Wells Fargo, and Morgan Stanley, has changed their lending policies
to exclude new drilling in the Arctic. Now we need Bank of America to do the
same. Tell Bank of America that fossil fuels are a bad investment and to
stop funding the destruction of the Arctic Refuge.
Thank you for all that you do,
Miranda B.

P.S. Any expansion in the production of climate-torching
fossil fuels is simply outrageous and reckless — especially in a sacred
place like the Arctic Refuge. It's time for Bank of America to turn off the
funding tap for these dirty energy corporations!
