French energy giant Total wants to turn untouched Arctic
wilderness -- the last home of the polar bear -- into a
gigantic gas drilling site.
But we can still stop the Arctic’s invasion by fossil fuel giants
-- and here’s how:
Total is relying on a €700 million loan guarantee from
the French government -- and President Macron is trying to
keep it hush-hush. Macron cares about his image as an environmental
leader -- let’s blow his cover and expose this huge hypocrisy.
Our plan: we'll melt a spectacular polar bear ice
sculpture outside the French Ministry of Finance to grab
headlines and put the destruction of the Arctic on the front page --
forcing Macron to back down. Can you chip in $2 to stop Total’s
invasion into the Arctic?

For generations, the Gwich'in and other Indigenous
peoples have been living and protecting this special Arctic land --
dubbed by some as the “last wilderness”. It’s a shelter for
endangered and threatened species like the polar bear and
narwhal.
But now French energy giant Total is plotting an invasion that
will forever ruin this beautiful paradise.
We simply can’t let that happen.
If we make the French government back off today, we’ll send a
strong message to leaders and fossil fuel companies around the
world: we won't tolerate our taxpayer money being used to finance
our destruction!
In today’s busy news, we need this bold stunt to get Macron’s
attention. Just imagine the headlines as this giant ice
polar bear melts right outside the French Finance Ministry
-- he won’t be able to hide the fact he’s pumping millions into
killing the Arctic. But we can’t pull this off without you Vladimir!

Across France, SumOfUs members like you have joined with our
partners at 350.org to make the French government reconsider its
plan to spend public money on the destruction of the Arctic. The
pressure is mounting -- and we can turn it to a tipping point.
Over the past year, SumOfUs members have been holding our
governments to account on the climate crisis -- rallying our world
leaders to stop pouring public recovery money into the worst
polluters’ pockets and getting banks to commit to stop the funding
of fossil fuels. With your help, I know we can win this
too!
