Today is a day to honor the people who have served our country. The values that guide our military -- integrity, resilience, selfless service, and duty -- align deeply with the Sierra
Club's own commitment to justice, collaboration, and transformation. Together, these values fuel our shared mission: to build communities grounded in purpose, healing, and care for
one another and the planet.
Watch this video to learn how our Military Outdoors program connects veterans, active-duty service members, and their families with the restorative power of nature. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.or

The Clean Water Act Is at Risk! <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=a169845dce363e3de966bc008ecbffd97d8748dd25eb2365fc1278e12d812207bbd818405dd65c17f0581f6c47d66a4c9475fb3fc9d0514d3862774b34d9dc7

Access to clean, safe, reliable water is a fundamental human right. The Clean Water Act, which was passed 53 years ago, has served as the most fundamental tool for protecting our nation's
waters and the communities that rely on them. For decades, the Sierra Club has played a pivotal role in resisting efforts to narrow or weaken critical safeguards. Yet again, a dangerous
bill in Congress threatens to dismantle Clean Water Act protections, empower polluters, and jeopardize our health and environment.
Tell your representatives to vote NO on this critical threat to our water and future. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=a169845dce363e3d7c3cfb4e4d06c6a8ed392ada324ac4e8b217d00065f1a85f9b0fe160d

Holiday Action Hour: Growing the Environmental Movement <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=a169845dce363e3dd287402b20e2ab97364d35bd68f9d0abed0726918d8523d00190506087baf9cc264402c9a917d8c1dc354b4

Most people in the US think it's important to protect our environment, but we tend not to talk about it. Having conversations about the actions we can take to protect our air, water,
public lands, and climate can actually help increase support for environmental protections. With the holiday season fast approaching, many of us are likely to see family members, neighbors,
and old friends in person and have the opportunity to engage on these issues.
Join our November 20 Virtual Action Hour to learn why these conversations matter and how to have them effectively! <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=a169845dce363e3d2d0f32035e11c544192fc29634a1

Did you know that oil and gas companies spent $450 million to get Trump and congressional Republicans elected so they can continue to poison our communities and climate without consequence?
Enough is enough. The movement to hold them accountable is growing.

The Sierra Club just released our annual Dirty Truth Report. We rated 75 utilities across the country on their plans to retire coal, add new gas, and invest in clean energy. This year,
utilities scored extremely low, reflecting an alarming trend of utility companies backsliding on their climate commitments and relying on dirty, expensive fossil fuels.
See how your local utility scored! <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=a169845dce363e3dcd7772b64a67bd9bca69fefdabf9a2e67162f28568e430bc5d797d5f4fd5926314f3c3a283ac563cf01f6fe4b77adf1e>

"My life before the Marines, during my service, and in the years afterward are defined by navigating extremes. Living as an American in the United States of America is inherently an
act of extremism. To wake up and choose to love ourselves, maintain resilience, and choose hope is an act of bravery."

Debra Mackenzie, of the University of New Mexico, works with tribes throughout the Southwest to bring Indigenous artwork to health-care communications. She and her team connected with
Zuni Pueblo artist Mallery Quetawki, who now uses Native American symbology to lower barriers to understanding health and science research in a way that honors Indigenous values and
culture.

This Natural Disaster Has Upended Life for Rural Alaskans <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=a169845dce363e3d468b9588d563bc252b4aec324ffc0e900903c4cfa152c234f732f89ae644ae270c3fefb55aa789de053f3

Western Alaska has become the testing ground for America's climate future -- one where disasters are not distant hypotheticals but are present, repeated, and compounding. For residents
in the region, the costs of climate change are no longer abstract; they're measured in flooded homes, displaced families, and the reshaping of coastlines.
Where do these communities go from here? <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=a169845dce363e3d55253e8fe52ef9fe1437881279f010df3d9cda29c44a2d24f74047b6f91d35d4af6a7656443802b72e76b9f05a380294>
