The short explanation of this alert was:

On August 10, the Bureau of Land Management plans to lease for oil and gas drilling almost 20,000 acres -- more than 30 square miles -- of roadless lands within three national forests in Colorado. 

Leasing these areas for development would pave the way for road construction and drilling activities that could damage the wildlife, watershed, hunting, fishing, and recreational values found there.  Leasing would violate Forest Service commitments and undermine the efforts of a statewide task force that will make recommendations to Colorado's governor on whether and how to protect Colorado's 4.4 million acres of roadless forest. 

Tell BLM and the Forest Service not to lease Colorado's roadless forest!

Personalized letters are much more effective: Why is protecting our last wild forests important to you?
