One Direction, Alexandra Burke, Ben Barnes, Dev Patel and Lily Cole are just a few of the celebrities announced today who are supporting Greenpeace's Save The Arctic Campaign.
They're asking for a global sanctuary in the Arctic, and are demanding that oil drilling and unsustainable fishing are banned in Arctic waters.
Rita Ora, Thom Yorke, Jude Law, Ed Norton and more will be among the first 100 names to be written on the Arctic Scroll supporting the cause, and you can add your name on here.
Shell is due to begin exploratory drilling at two offshore sites in the Alaskan Arctic in the coming weeks. If Shell is successful this summer, an Arctic oil rush will be sparked and the push to carve up the region will accelerate. Russian oil giant Gazprom is also pushing into the offshore Arctic this year.
