Countless wildlife — from polar bears to pikas and everything in between — are threatened by climate change. **And Scott Pruitt, the head of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), is exacerbating their struggle for survival.**

Pruitt has failed to uphold his sworn oath of office as the nation's top environmental enforcement official. **Instead, he has pursued a political agenda to eviscerate the agency he leads** and everything it stands for, including:

* Rolling back decades of bipartisan environmental protections;
* Slashing funding for clean air, clean water, toxic waste protections and other environmental safeguards;
* Ignoring the agency's own science, data, analysis and recommendations in decision making;
* Discrediting and personally overseeing the removal of climate change information from the EPA's website;
* Removing agency references to renewable energy and promoting more fossil fuel-friendly policies; and
* Tilting the playing field in favor of dirty energy by undermining every emissions reduction standard he can get his hands on, from the Clean Power Plan to automobile fuel economy standards.

**Pruitt has also undermined and silenced scientists and policy experts within the EPA** and replaced them with his lobbyist cronies and public relations specialists with deep ties to special interests and polluters. In doing so, he has put millions of Americans and countless wildlife species and ecosystems at great risk.

**Act Now: Tell Congress and President Trump to send Scott Pruitt on his way before it's too late!**
