Adventure through the horrors of climate change in the Arctic
Come on an expedition through the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge by foot and raft with author and film maker Chad Kister. Learn about how climate change is hammering the Arctic with drastic impacts like melting permafrost, receding glaciers, drastic reduction in Arctic ice, shorelines crumbling into the sea and declines in wildlife and subsistence hunting by native peoples.
Show support for local, state and federal efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by bringing the front line of climate change to your town. With firsthand accounts of the devastating impacts in the Arctic, you can educate people and get media attention for the immediate need for federal legislation to slash greenhouse gas emissions with mandatory measure.
The Arctic Refuge Defense Campaign is working on a campaign to pass legislation similar to or stronger than the Safe Climate Act that some anti-environmental Republicans filibustered this past June.
