The Trump administration is initiating oil and gas lease sales in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge's Coastal Plain, inviting companies to identify drilling sites. This 1.56-million-acre area is the biological heart of the Arctic Refuge, vital for the Porcupine caribou herd, migratory birds, and polar bears.

Industrializing this irreplaceable sanctuary will harm wildlife and accelerate climate change. The Arctic is already warming four times faster than the rest of the planet. Drilling will displace animals, endanger polar bear families, and pollute air and water, fueling a climate disaster. Past lease sales have failed due to public demand for protection over short-term corporate profit. Stand up for the Coastal Plain.

Affordability, as defined in a recent MGI report, represents the financial burden a household bears—typically 30-40% of its income. This information was published March 19, 2015.

Rapid human population growth and overconsumption drive critical environmental crises, including the wildlife extinction crisis, habitat loss, and climate change. The Center uniquely tackles these sensitive issues that many environmental groups often overlook.

Our common-sense solutions focus on empowering women and girls, ensuring universal access to reproductive healthcare and education, and developing healthy, secure food systems. We also engage the public through initiatives like distributing over 1 million Endangered Species Condoms with memorable slogans.

Timed with World Population Day on July 11, this presentation features Kelley Dennings, Population and Sustainability Campaigner, and Sarah Baillie, Endangered Species Condoms coordinator, to discuss our vital work.
