Audubon's award-winning environmental education program about the natural world and how to protect it can be implemented in any classroom or after-school program. All it takes is an interest in exploring, learning about, and enjoying the natural world around you.

Protect Arctic Ocean from New Oil Drilling
The ocean waters along Alaska's northern coast provide vital habitat for extraordinary wildlife, including polar bears, walruses, ice-dependent seals, endangered bowhead whales, and millions of migratory birds. The Arctic Ocean can also be phenomenally harsh: broken ice covers the water for much of the year, storms with hurricane-force winds can whip up 20-foot seas, and it is entirely dark for half the year.
The federal government recently released a proposed Five-Year Program (2012-2017) for offshore oil and gas leasing that could open up pristine new areas in the Arctic Ocean offshore of Alaska to oil drilling, even though the oil industry has never demonstrated the ability to clean up an oil spill in the Arctic Ocean. Comments are due by February 8.
