Protecting America's Arctic has never been more critical. The nation’s largest single tract of public land is a 23-million-acre unbroken tundra that’s essential for wildlife, people, and the Earth’s climate.
This globally important region—the breeding and foraging grounds for millions of birds arriving from all seven continents, a place where tens of thousands of caribou roam and birth their calves, and an essential permafrost carbon repository—also bears a name that obscures its true value to the planet: the National Petroleum Reserve–Alaska (NPR-A).
Learn about this critical landscape, get inspired, and make your voice heard by adding a public comment to the Federal Register. It can be as simple as letting our administration know you value these wild lands. The public comment period ends August 4th 2025. www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/06/03/2025-…
