URGENT ACTION NEEDED: Permanently protect more than 1.1 MILLION acres of American wilderness! >> Sign now! This is the LARGEST conservation opportunity in the American West. You have the opportunity to help protect miles and miles of rolling hills, sagebrush plains, and red canyon trenches. The Owyhee Canyonlands of Oregon have been home to the Bannock, Shoshone, and Northern Paiute people since time immemorial. Irreplaceable cultural artifacts and ancient historical sites suggest at least 13,000 years of human history in the region! But this beautiful and unique landscape is currently left VULNERABLE to greedy developers! Tell President Biden to name the Owyhee Canyonlands a national monument and conserve its more than 1.1 million acres of undeveloped land! The Owyhee Canyonlands geologic history has led to a stunning palette of vermillion hues, chocolatey browns, and olive greens across the landscape. Towering stone structures and canyon rivers have earned this place the nickname “Oregon’s Grand Canyon.” Development in this region would threaten the unique landscape, cultural connection of Indigenous communities, and the hundreds of native plants and animals that rely on the canyonlands to survive. Your immediate action can help prevent that day from coming! Will you urge President Biden to stop potential greedy developers from destroying the Owyhee Canyonlands? Standing with you, Raena Garcia Senior Fossil Fuel and Lands Campaigner, Friends of the Earth |
