- Wrap shoelace, ribbon or thread around your wrist
- Measure length with ruler

- Finding the suitable size
Hint: (length is incl. the clasp) Every Bracenet is handmade and the size could differ a few millimeters.
The Willow Project is a controversial oil drilling project in the untouched ice landscape of northern Alaska. It would include up to five drilling stations for a total of 250 oil wells, pipelines, roads and airfields, and produce up to 600 million barrels of oil. However, the project would have a huge impact on local polar bears and Arctic wildlife, as well as the rightful owners of the land, the indigenous peoples of North America. According to various estimates, the project could release between 260 and 278 million tons of CO2 emissions over 30 years. That would accelerate human-made climate change.
AND NOW?
-
With BRACENET we want to send a clear signal against this project! We can still stop it.
-
For each “Stop Willow” Bracenet 5€ will be donated to Earthjustice. Earthjustice filed a lawsuit on 3/15/2023 on behalf of several conservation groups to stop the massive Willow oil drilling project. Eartjustice is the most prominent environmental justice nonprofit organization and relies completely on donations.

We’re writing a letter to Joe Biden on behalf of BRACENET and you!
