| Mission Description | Established by John Muir in 1892 on the notion that experiencing nature fosters a desire to protect it, Sierra Club provides wilderness experiences and opportunities to engage individuals from a variety of backgrounds to "explore, enjoy, and protect" the planet. Enlisting its 1.4 million supporters, 32,000 activists, hundreds of lobbyists, and legal teams in all 50 states, plus Puerto Rico, Sierra Club uses its core capacity strengths--litigation, grassroots organizing, lobbying, public education--to create national and neighborhood demand for environmental protection, to impact environmental laws such as the clean air and water acts, and to protect America's wild lands and wilderness, from Yosemite to the Arctic wilderness. In 2005, the volunteer members of the democratically managed Sierra Club voted to focus the Club's full attention on the human causes and devastating results of climate change. With an audacious goal of reducing U.S. emissions by at least 80 percent by 2050, Sierra | MissionDescription |

| Description | Studying and influencing public policy: staff and volunteers engage in legislative and non-legislative activities, including research, education, lobbying, legal and policy development.In 2010, the Sierra Club continued its efforts to stem the root cause of climate disruption-fossil fuel combustion-while protecting natural and human communities from its unavoidable effects. Here are a few victories we're celebrating: Every year U.S. coal plants produce more than 130 million tons of toxic coal ash, containing dangerous levels of arsenic, lead, and other heavy metals. In May, the EPA proposed new safeguards for coal ash disposal. Sierra Club mobilized the full force of our online and on-the-ground organizing capability to turn out members and volunteers for EPA hearings in eight cities nationwide. In all, nearly 2,000 Sierra Club activists appeared in person, and more than 100,000 comments were delivered to the EPA demanding strong, federally enforceable safeguards that protect the neighborhoods near coal ash disposal sites. Our program to protect America's Waters worked with volunteers in all 50 states, testing and reporting on water safety of almost 60 percent of America's wild streams, lakes, rivers, and aquifers. Water volunteer Lynn Henning organized her neighbors, lobbied regulatory agencies, and tirelessly amassed evidence of water pollution caused by dangerous manure disposal practices by factory farms in Michigan-collecting samples that proved more than 1,000 violations. Thanks to her work, 16 Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFO) dairies were shut down. For her efforts, Henning was awarded the prestigious Goldman Environmental Prize for North America. As part of our pan-Arctic strategy, we worked with Alaska Natives and our Arctic Activist Network to protect the Western Arctic (both on- and offshore areas) from oil and gas development. Located in the Western Arctic Reserve, Teshekpuk Lake is at the heart of one of the world's most productive and sensitive wetlands complexes, providing a haven for bird nesting and molting, as well as caribou calving grounds. In July, the Obama Administration responded, preserving 170,000 acres of critical habitat in buffer zones near the Lake. Through our youth programs--Sierra Student Coalition, Military Families Outdoors, the Environmental Apprenticeship program, Water Sentinels, Building Bridges to the Outdoors, and Inner City Outings-we help young people establish lifelong connections with the natural world. This year, we took 200,000 young people into nature, building the next generation of environmentalists and a movement that reflects the diversity of our country. | Description |
