The National Park Service is asking for public input on how to improve visitor services in parks. This is a big opportunity to make our voices heard, which is especially urgent with
a looming government shutdown putting our public lands, staff, and services at even greater risk. Visitor services touch nearly every part of the park experience, from how people get
around to how they learn about history, culture, and nature. This is a major chance to speak up and ensure our parks remain welcoming, inspiring, and protected for everyone.
Comment today to tell the National Park Service why you care that our parks prioritize accessibility, sustainability, and equity. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=ec248d82f870d533e024d854f5e20

For 133 years, the Sierra Club has advocated for all Americans to have access to our public lands and safe and healthy communities. Free speech, peaceful assembly, and a functioning
democracy are essential to create a brighter future for all of us. We will not back down in the face of this intimidation. We will continue to advocate even more loudly for our values
and for the right of every American to speak their mind in the face of oppression. Please read our full response to this outrageous attack on our freedoms. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=ec

Defending Environmental Protections Under Trump: Are You In? <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=ec248d82f870d533d192767ffaf50a3de4ceba364f33cddd003420aa248739d8411a5a136625c390b09b7c2708b61a6568

Have you heard of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)? Since the 1970s, it has been one of the strongest tools we have to defend our air, water, and communities from polluting
industries. But right now, the Trump administration is trying to gut critical protections from the inside out. That's why we're inviting you to a live virtual event to learn how we
can all defend our environment under Trump.
Whether you're new to environmental justice or a longtime advocate, join us tomorrow, Oct 1, 7 pm ET, to learn how we can act before it's too late. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=ec248d82f87

Protect Limits on This Dangerous Greenhouse Gas <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=ec248d82f870d53349ac14bfd32fc07e1328f6d1f648be5568ca89ee517ed500b4eb1bdc5e323dac0f8e5daed6b51c7fa145a9ab876772f

Methane is a potent and dangerous greenhouse gas. Thanks to our advocacy, the Biden administration acted to reduce methane pollution -- a massive win for our health and climate. But
now, Trump's EPA is dragging its feet on implementing this methane rule and creating loopholes for its polluter allies at the expense of our health and well-being. We need to defend
this victory.
You have until this Friday, October 3, to submit your comment. Act now to demand the EPA do its job to protect our health and future. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=ec248d82f870d533896341b81

Building stronger communities starts with the people closest to us. As part of our Climate Truth Teller training series, we're hosting an online workshop to teach you how to talk about
challenging topics with friends and family, invite others into the movement, and share your personal story.

One Year After Helene, Conservation Meets Recovery in North Carolina <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=ec248d82f870d5334cd4b7a1081ad6085137a20a9d8b7737daca634fa6dfaea7045432ac90ac821edd05af2f4e

Although a year has passed since Hurricane Helene devastated western North Carolina, the region is still grappling with much of the physical and emotional wreckage left behind. That's
especially true along the region's waterways, which flooded to record levels and destroyed almost 1,000 homes.

Years of fire suppression and drier conditions are leading to rare and new fire phenomena. Cyclones and other storms fueled by fires are leveling forests beyond repair. When a wildfire
ignited in the Athabasca Valley of Jasper National Park in the Rocky Mountain wilderness, it burned with unusual power.
Here's what researchers are saying about how fires are getting more destructive in a hotter and drier world. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=ec248d82f870d533b90180ccf3c2ea81270e6627983d32b3f0

How to Care for Your Pets Sustainably <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=ec248d82f870d533613457204109c2995fa4fd5903244afe1abe936b8bdafe65009e774f4bc1025d91a9e83b9def8e27996957249c07ff01>
According to one study, a single country made up of all the world's dogs and cats would rank fifth globally for meat consumption, delivering up to 64 million tons of greenhouse gases.
Then there are all those wasteful novelties (think Pawsifico beer can squeaky toys) that end up in landfills. The good news? Consumer demand for a circular economy is driving better
alternatives.
Learn how you can care for your pets mindfully while supporting a growing green industry. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=ec248d82f870d53375ac7da1f7cc3b67cef43d5edfdc0163180d3f605a89d5105618a
