-- spectrum an arctic echosystem in america. it has 47 different species of mammals including polar bears, grizzly bears, and caribou. it has over 40 species of fish and 200 species of birds. why would we want to destroy this refuge? it was first established by the eisenhower administration and congress later protected this amazing arctic area and its echosystem to protect the wildlife and protect the habitat because of its incredible diversity. the arctic wildlife refuge is really known as the last great wilderness in our country, one of the great last wild places. but this legislation turns that on its head. it would make oil and gas development one of the statutory purposes of the wildlife refuge. and under this legislation, this refuge would become the only refuge where oil and gas development is required by law. it opens up an entire 1.5 million-acre coastal plain for gas and oil exploration, leasing 100,000 acres. it will lease the areas with the highest cost of oil and gas no matter the consequences for the environment. t

so we can't just think of arctic sea ice retreat by itself. it's affecting whole climate system. to greater extent than the loss of isoopen quarter is giving us that warming of the world. and it's causing warmer air to spreads over the green lapd ice sheets and that's making greenland melt faster which is giving us an increase in the rate of sea level rise globally. so that's no typical here in the gulf of -- gulf of mexico everywhere, in fact, in the world. so you have at least rising at the accelerated rate and that's very extra contribution is mainly from -- the melting of the greenland ice sheet due to sea ice retreating in arctic and another effect is that we're getting -- released from arctic surface because les sediments from the continental shelve was of the arctic and actually the three bed sediments -- in the last ice age allows below to get out, and we're now seeing big ones coming up into the atmosphere and again causing an acceleration of global warm withing. and the final -- not final but -- two more that affect people here is fact that -- the as sea ice retreats we

when it comes to the arctic national wildlife refuge, the coastal plain of the arctic is the biologicallyt diverse protected nursery in the empire. it is a nursery of global significance. i am a highing tower of academia. i have spent an enormous amount of time in that coastal plain, and have seen life be born, being nursed, in all seasons including winter. wheres the coastal plain 200,000 strong caribou herd that we were talking about give birth and nurse their young. that is the coastal plain where from six continents and the united states go therere to nure anand rear their young. i have experienced all of this personallyly out therere. the most beautiful way that the arctic refuge cocoastal plains s a nursing ground has been affected by the business, they , which in their language loosely translates to the simplest way for life begins. to turn the sacred way of life into an oil field at a time of extreme global climate change, george mondale calls climate grid down. it is s an epic crime. amy: explain how t this is being dealt with in the tax code, the tax bill today. called as what i
