Fwd: Defend the Arctic, July 18 in D.C.!
Chris Yoder
This Saturday morning in DC....hope you can attend!
Dear David,
Show President Obama we don't want Shell's dangerous drills in our pristine Arctic waters!
Join the Washington, D.C. rally to protect the Arctic on Saturday, July 18!Drilling in the Arctic? Oh Shell no!
We are at a critical moment in the fight to save America's Arctic. We only have days left to convince the president to deny Shell's permit and we need your help!
Last month, we got the president's attention when "kayaktivists" held a protest in the waters near Shell's rigs in Seattle. Now, we have to let him know we mean business. That's why we're holding a nationwide day of action on July 18!
Only President Obama can make the final call, so we're bringing the "Shell No" message to his front lawn. Get in on the action in Washington, D.C. on July 18!

Instead of inviting a near certain oil spill that cannot be cleaned up, the Obama Administration should focus on developing clean energy and leave dirty fuels in the ground. Allowing Shell to drill in the Arctic Ocean is risky for the climate, our waters, wildlife, and the communities that rely on them.
Join us in Washington, D.C. on Saturday, July 18 to send a strong message to President Obama that we say "Shell no!" to drilling in the Arctic!In these remaining weeks, it is critical that the president hears us loud and clear.
Let's do this.
Thanks for all you do to protect the environment,
