Biden’s recent climate change actions in Alaska and California
The Biden Administration reversed oil leases in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR), earning praise from environmental advocates and Alaska Native wildlife and subsistence hunting protectors.
But the move also received criticism from Alaska Native corporations and the state’s entire congressional delegation. Join Native America Calling for a look at the ongoing political back-and-forth that defines the pristine but resource-rich tundra of Alaska.
Plus, a preview of what could be an historic marine sanctuary set-aside initiated by the Chumash Tribe in California.
