Audubon Action Alert: Please Send this Email to the Interior Dept to Oppose Keystone XL Pipeline

The Evening Grosbeak has experienced a 70 to 80 percent decline over the last 40 years. It specifically needs coniferous forest for its nesting, making it vulnerable to the loss and fragmentation of boreal forest clear-cutting associated with tar sands.

Stop Keystone Pipeline! Comments Due Now.

The State Department recently released their review of the Keystone XL tar sands oil pipeline—but the review is woefully inadequate, ignoring the massive impacts from tar sands operations in Canada that are destroying millions of acres of boreal forest so important to many of our songbirds. The report further finds that building the pipeline will have little impact on climate change—even though the pipeline would increase emissions so much it would be like adding 4.6 million cars to the roads.

Send your comments to the Obama Administration and urge a more comprehensive review of the environmental impacts of the pipeline. You can send the sample comment below, or edit it with your own words for even greater impact.
