Hi All – Last week, we continued to ramp up content to pressure the Biden administration to reverse course, before a final Record of Decision for the proposed Willow oil and gas project (as early as March 6).   

 

This week, we’re in a final push to do everything we can to make a last stand. LCV’s TV ad campaign is continuing. Print ads are planned for the D.C. edition of the New York Times and Wilmington News-Journal. Please see below for key amplification opportunities, with new content from a light projection on the Department of the Interior building in D.C. 

 

Top Line Ask:  

President Biden: It’s not too late to stop the Willow project, a climate disaster we cannot afford.

Tweet 1: Over the past 3 weeks, more than 250,000 people have called on @SecDebHaaland & @POTUS to reject the Willow oil and gas project before it’s too late. We took those messages straight to the Department of Interior. #StopWillow

Tweet 2: @SecDebHaaland, in case you've missed all the studies, demonstrations, articles & campaigns saying the Willow Project is no good, we brought our message straight to your office. Willow is bad for Alaska, bad for communities & bad for the planet. #StopWillow today.

Tweet 3: @POTUS, @SecDebHaaland, in case there was any doubt about how your voters feel about the dirty & dangerous Willow Project, we're making our message loud & clear...& bringing it to the front steps of the Department of Interior. #StopWillow

·        ConocoPhillips’ Willow oil drilling project stands in direct conflict with the administration’s climate obligations and the subsistence and wildlife values of the Western Arctic. 

·        The Willow drilling project is a climate disaster in waiting. Our window to act on climate is rapidly closing and every new fossil fuel project makes it that much harder for us to do what we need to avert truly catastrophic climate change.

·        Approval of the project dismisses the serious public health risk faced by Alaskan communities.
