All of the dates above are special in their own way,but 11th of February 2013 is a very important and special date for your calendar. This date is the end date to get your name added to the Arctic Scroll and help us get closer to the magic three million mark. By going to http://www.savethearctic.org/ you can add your name to the scroll, you are not just joining in with millions of people around the world who have signed the scroll, you will be on the same scroll as Thom Yorke and Sir Paul McCartney and will also be helping to make history by being somebody who stood up and said to Shell and others who may come later STAY OUT OF THE ARCTIC.
As well as having your name on a scroll that will be taken to the North Pole and planted on the arctic seabed, you will also be strengthening the case for the arctic to become a global sanctuary, just like the antarctic is now.
So if you havent already done so, sign the arctic scroll today, if you have and you know friends who havent, tell them about it, email them, post it on facebook, tweet it on twitter, text them personal texts, however you choose to tell them, remind them that they havent got too much time to add their name to one of the most important documents in history.
One month to go and counting and your name and legacy could be imortalised in the anals of conservation and envrionmental history. When your children and grand children ask you if your name was on this scroll, will you tell the truth and say ''no, i didnt have time or the opportunity''? Or will you say ''Yes i just made it in time before the cut off date and now i am so proud i did my best to help the arctic when it needed me most''
