Help Save Arctic Animals!
When people use tankers to move oil, the ships sometimes run over glaciers and then have holes in them. Then the barrels of oil spill into the Arctic waters and spread. When the oil reaches a school of fish, it gets into their gills and blocks oxygen for them to breathe.
When birds dive to catch food the oil gets stuck to their wings so the birds can’t fly and they die. Every day this happens in many places, but mostly in the Arctic.
Stop Drilling!
Drilling can be a big problem to the Arctic animals. When there is drilling, the animals’ habitats are destroyed. They also face oils spills. If their habitats are destroyed, the animals don’t have enough land to live on and can’t find food for their families.
So… Help Save Arctic Animals!!

Arcitc animals aren't the only living beings affected. There's the creatures of the rainforests too.
