From the Alaska Wilderness League (http://www.alaskawild.org):
A group of investors representing $2.5 TRILLION in assets took a stand against drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge! They urged oil companies and banks to not support drilling in this wildlife nursery. And, in under a week, activists will arrive in Washington, D.C., from across the country to drive this point home.
If you have not yet submitted a public comment that opposes drilling in the Arctic Refuge, could you please do so now at https://act.alaskawild.org/sign/refugenotoilEIS?
In upcoming meetings with dozens of House and Senate offices, we want to reference public comments from constituents like you. Support for the Arctic Refuge in a member’s home district makes the issue more relevant and our meetings all the more powerful.

As these savvy investors state, drilling in the Arctic Refuge is a bad investment. It’s a risk to invest more in dirty fuels. It’s a gamble to invest in speculative drilling. And it’s bad business to threaten the human rights of Alaska Natives as well as the countless wild creatures that rely on the Arctic Refuge to survive.
