"The Administration is rushing an environmental impact statement on an oil and gas leasing program: is the impact statement correct in its findings?"

"Climate change is affecting the Arctic greatly. Please consider the climate impacts of oil and gas exploration in a wilderness. How is climate change impacting you?"

"How do you expect us to bear these burdens of adaptation--because in the Arctic we are well beyond the point of mitigation--if you erode our ability to fund these projects ourselves?"

"One of my concerns about the Administration's headlong rush to start drilling in the Arctic is the climate impacts of creating an entirely new oil and gas field out of a wilderness."
