Dear President Biden,

Message Body

I urge you to halt drilling and fracking on ALL public lands and waters.

It is the height of irresponsibility to expand fracking and drilling on public lands at a time when the climate crisis demands that we move off fossil fuels to clean, renewable energy.

The U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report underscores the need to swiftly halt the use of fossil fuels to avoid a fate of extreme global climate chaos. The report notes that extreme weather events – including droughts, floods, and heatwaves – are accelerating in frequency and strength and causing increasing damage. Some scientists are calling it “the bleakest warning yet.”

Fracking is inherently dangerous. No set of regulations can prevent accidents impacting people's health, drinking water, and land. The oil and gas industry has a dismal record of protecting communities and the environment, so banning fracking on public lands should be a priority for your administration.

Be on the right side of history by acting NOW to protect people's health, national resources and heritage, and our climate future.

I urge you to ban fracking on public lands to protect our climate for future generations.

Sincerely,

[First Name] [Last Name]
