For the Winter issue of Sierra magazine, we welcomed Rosario Dawson -- a film and TV actor and producer as well as an environmental activist -- as guest editor. This edition's theme
is endurance, an acknowledgment of the many challenges our communities and our planet face and the inspiring ways people are responding. As Rosario writes in her editorial, endurance
is both personal and ecological -- a living practice and a communion between humans and the land. "If you find yourself struggling … right now, you are not alone."
Read Rosario Dawson's reflections on how we can build stronger connections through shared purpose and shape the future together. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=6ef2a19d8139c0fc06efaa80e0c14b

The Endangered Species Act Is Under Attack! <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=6ef2a19d8139c0fc56a582a7b50a8a650a743cb094632c991be0056fe227f0d0890daa528545bb2d06d5ad27d0dc10b41721d1ddec677fefd68

The Endangered Species Act has done so much to save some of our most iconic wildlife ... and President Trump wants to get rid of it. Did you know that species like bald eagles, alligators,
and peregrine falcons are all around today thanks to this landmark law?
Tell the US Fish and Wildlife Service to maintain strong protections for endangered species! <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=6ef2a19d8139c0fc110df656353a5356e28274b20027ba792a56d8259bcce8b78a

Protect Our Oceans From Offshore Drilling <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=6ef2a19d8139c0fc39fc49d51328679fcc757e7d8caa207ab74f1fd3305c10958382f22d03716d75195be81c9c4669daaac61191f79e35a07f7eb

Donald Trump and his corporate donors are on a mission to sell our lands, waters, and public resources to the highest bidder. That's exactly what they are planning to do with America's
precious coastal waters. The Trump administration just announced a new five-year plan to expand offshore drilling. It's every bit as bad as you'd think, opening up coastal waters that
haven't been leased in decades.
Help us sink this plan by submitting a comment before the January 23 deadline! <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=6ef2a19d8139c0fccc57a83ffed6784d67bac3307a1fbcaec80939e8ae51e3a7c2a070b919b8e848

During the winter months, many of us have fewer gardening opportunities outdoors. Now might be the perfect time to prioritize making a home for local birds. It sounds simple, but just
as we're often sold unhealthy food, many companies sell bird feed that's not good for birds at all.

From opening up the Western Arctic to oil drilling to pushing industrial logging with the flawed Fix Our Forests Act to gutting the Endangered Species Act, environmental protections
are facing more threats than ever before.

The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, Joshua Tree National Park, and the city of Palm Springs draw visitors from around the world. But many tourists who pass through this region
never see the cluster of sparsely populated, unincorporated communities -- among the poorest in Southern California -- in the Coachella Valley's southeastern corner, where farmworkers
struggle to make ends meet. Luckily organizations like Alianza Nacional de Campesinas are stepping in to help.
Learn how communities take care of their own -- helping farmworkers tackle problems including sexual harassment, wage theft, pesticide-related illnesses, and heat stress. <http://click.emails.sierrac

A Montana Utility's Coal Addiction Costs Ratepayers Millions <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=6ef2a19d8139c0fc4c663cde5e765e62240656719c44908e739eebfe7d5f1f80ab945d77ee049ad83f36b43d7557e1c269

While coal plants make electricity more expensive for ratepayers, keeping them open benefits investors. Almost two decades ago, Montana regulators approved a plan to overcharge customers
in an effort to keep a prominent coal plant open. Now, officials that operate the plant say they plan to keep it operating until at least 2042.
