Your Signature is Needed: This project could drive critically endangered orcas to extinction

POISONED. DROWNED. STARVED. These are all potential fates for the 75 remaining critically endangered Southern Resident Orcas if the Trans Mountain pipeline moves forward. [Act now!]( The Trans Mountain pipeline escalates the risk of a devastating oil spill and increases tanker traffic. Orcas can’t detect spills -- so they may suck in toxic tar sands oil, leading to infection and death. Even the fumes alone can knock out and drown a full-grown whale. What’s more, oil tanker traffic disrupts orcas’ sonar and drives away their primary food source and the region’s keystone species -- Chinook salmon. The Trans Mountain Pipeline’s disastrous consequences can be avoided if people like YOU speak up. [Friend, help stop the Trans Mountain pipeline in its tracks by signing before 11:59 pm TONIGHT!]( [SIGN THE PETITION NOW]( Risky projects like the Trans Mountain pipeline require insurance to be built and operated. 18 insurance companies have already declined their support -- this pipeline is that bad. But insurance giant Liberty Mutual is still thinking of supporting the project, despite the lack of consent from Indigenous communities and resulting environmental destruction. There are a few reasons so many insurance companies have decided to avoid the pipeline. The project’s horrendous environmental impact is one -- a movement of people like YOU demanding better is another. We can do it again with your help. [ADD YOUR NAME: If 1 out of every 6 people reading this takes action, we can meet our goal to urge Liberty Mutual to stop supporting the Trans Mountain pipeline.]( [SIGN THE PETITION NOW]( Standing with you, Verner Wilson Senior oceans campaigner, Friends of the Earth Contact Us: Friends of the Earth U.S. Washington, D.C. | Berkeley, CA 1-877-843-8687 [Contact us](foe.org/about-us/contact/) Email Preferences: [Click here to unsubscribe]( Learn more: www.foe.org/news www.foe.org/about-us www.foeaction.org Connect: [Facebook]( [Twitter]( [Flickr]( © 2021, Friends of the Earth.
