Puerto Rico and Florida were devastated once again by hurricanes, yet another set of natural disasters worsened by climate change. The Sierra Club is fundraising for some local organizations
that are helping with recovery after hurricanes Fiona and Ian hit Florida and Puerto Rico.
You can help rebuild with an emergency gift to support immediate relief and long-term recovery. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=9e4571dee058fb6f299ddfd57ea07f333deaa1cdce0c92178fb612ed161afd3

The Sierra Club has a new podcast! Breaking the Cycle explores the impacts of oil and gas from the Permian Basin to the Gulf Coast, as well as the amazing people working tirelessly to
defend their communities and break the cycle of extraction, pollution, and exploitation.
Listen to the first episode. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=b84264f49df2fb74ee1c63184d405acc231ece99bd9f43d504b5b34addf11e362d8fd6713af6184cf924985ddc04602bb6558b502bdf4bbf>

For the first time in history, Alaska officials have canceled the winter snow crab harvest—on the grounds that the snow crab population in Bristol Bay shrank by at least 7 billion. But
what happened? Is climate change to blame?
More about this curious case. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=b84264f49df2fb74cef514e4fa2cc396cb5d67e51a76c86f97109079874eb6962ee4f9f52fb534d2481346a1dc01330ff9a4c08cd70c2b95>

Climate Denial <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=b84264f49df2fb7446f7837a67d2cef0be5e96ae84559061d3fe28cdb79742418917a8862ede5b3ab6e45d8306b71d301086b0a552229605>
Three decades ago, the climate change denial movement was born at a conference sponsored by fossil fuel behemoth Koch Industries. Today, we all are living with the dire consequences
of such a successful event and struggling against a planetary climate emergency.
And as Associate Director of Communications for Latino Media Javier Sierra writes, the success of climate denialism is forcing us all to ask ourselves the question of the century. <http://click.email

Oil and gas leasing on our public lands directly undercuts President Biden's ambitious climate goals. Despite this, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has proposed lease sales covering
over 250,000 acres of public lands in Wyoming, New Mexico, and Kansas.

This election day, it’s a down-ballot contest that makes Arizona a swing state in the battle against climate change. Depending on what voters decide, Arizona could either become a leader
in decarbonizing electricity or it could abandon those efforts entirely.

Most of us consume sugar every day, but we don't realize that there is a deadly practice behind this commonplace item. Cane sugar producers set fire to thousands of acres of sugarcane
fields in and around the Everglades Agricultural Area, exposing nearby residents to toxic smoke and ashfall.

Last week, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced that they will nearly double the first round of funding for the Clean School Bus Program to nearly $1 billion, and released
a list of awardees that includes school districts in every state in the nation. Originally set at $500 million, the first round of EPA funding was almost doubled to $965 billion due
to an overwhelming number of applications from school districts.

Did you know that donating your old or no-longer-needed vehicle can help support the Sierra Club's work to address the climate crisis, protect our wild places, and ensure that everyone
lives in safe and healthy communities? Our partners at CARS will pick up your vehicle from any location, no matter its condition, at no cost to you. They accept trucks, trailers, boats,
RVs, motorcycles, and more. If we meet our year-end goal of 480 vehicles donated, we could raise $400,000 for our campaigns. Donate by December 31 to be eligible for a 2022 tax deduction.
