The Biden administration said Friday it will restrict new oil and gas leasing on 13 million acres (5.3 million hectares) of a federal petroleum reserve in Alaska to help protect wildlife such as caribou and polar bears as the Arctic continues to warm. The decision — part of an ongoing, yearslong fight over whether and how to develop the vast oil resources in the state — finalizes protections first proposed last year as the Biden administration prepared to approve the controversial Willow oil project. The approval of Willow drew fury from environmentalists, who said the large oil project violated Biden's pledge to combat climate change.
The Biden administration on Friday took steps to limit both oil and gas drilling and mining in Alaska, angering state officials who said the restrictions will cost jobs and make the U.S. reliant on foreign resources.

The Interior Department finalized a regulation to block oil and gas development on 40% of Alaska's National Petroleum Preserve to protect habitats for polar bears, caribou and other wildlife and the way of life of indigenous communities.

On a cloudy April afternoon, Weldon Harding is scanning the waters of Tabusintac Bay, in northeastern New Brunswick, from the back of a lobster fishing boat. He points out a long sandbar, indicating the start of a shallow channel to enter and exit the harbour."It's narrow, it's shallow and if you come in and it's rough, you hit the bottom and the next wave takes you and sinks you."As the boat passes near the gully at high tide, water levels on the marine depth sounder dip to just above one-and-a
