About [Edit]
The Sierra Club is America`s oldest, largest and most influential grassroots environmental organization with over 700,000 members.
Our Mission Statement
1. Explore, enjoy and protect the wild places of the earth.
2. Practice and promote the responsible use of the earth`s ecosystems and resources.
3. Educate and enlist humanity to protect and restore the quality of the natural and human environment.
4. Use all lawful means to carry out these objectives.
For purposes of planning, the Sierra Club’s purpose, is to preserve, protect, and enhance the natural environment.
The mission of the Sierra Club is to influence public, private and corporate policies and actions through Club programs at the local, state, national and international levels.
The strategy of the Sierra Club is to activate appropriate portions of a network of staff, members, and other concerned citizens, using legislative, administrative, electoral, and legal approaches, and to develop supporting public opinion.
Our Vision
For nearly 100 years, Sierra Club members have shared a vision of humanity living in harmony with the Earth.
We envision a world where wilderness areas and open spaces are protected habitats sustaining all species ... a world where oceans and streams are clean and the air is pure ... a world where a healthy biosphere and a nontoxic environment are inalienable rights. In short, we envision a world saved from the threat of unalterable planetary disaster.
To save our planet, we must change the world --
Priorities must change: People must learn to live in ways that preserve and protect our precious resources.
Policies must change: Our institutions must abandon practices that recklessly endanger the environment.
Values must change: Progress must be measured by its long-term value to living systems and creatures rather than its short-term value to special interests or the economy.
To achieve this vision, people across the nation and around the world must speak out with a powerful voice that cannot be ignored. Aggressive grassroots action on an unprecedented scale is essential to protect our environment and our species. There is no other choice. It will require leadership that is visionary, experienced, and strong.
