'Freeze' the Day: Detroit Outdoors Runs Its Second Michigan Ice Fest Outing <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=57b9056efc4bdbbdcaa5c996473a4feef696a2d7ae8c87e72efa4de942563a5c7180bd76d70b95a013e

Detroit Outdoors brought a BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and people of color) group to Michigan's Upper Peninsula for Michigan Ice Fest, an ice climbing festival. The outing was a series
of back-to-back firsts in other ways for many of the attendees, some of whom had never been to the Upper Peninsula, crossed the Mackinac Bridge, seen Lake Superior, or ice climbed before.
Coverage of the outing also landed on the front page of the Detroit Free Press Sunday edition.
Read more and watch the video about the group’s icy outdoor adventures. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=57b9056efc4bdbbdbdf7d822952a7ccc5f142b5d9e339bd197cad91249f9a771a442f03129fe04f5ae957e7

Climate change's impact on the housing market is, in many ways, an economic issue. It involves supply and demand, market signals, subsidies, and incentives. At its heart, however, this
is a deeply human problem.
Read the latest feature on how climate change impacts communities and the broader real estate market throughout the Southeast as floods and storm surges grow in frequency and intensity.

Urge US Banks to Take Action on Climate <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=57b9056efc4bdbbd6a0e8b9588ed901eb25086ac777bd7776e294b68fbc7e8258c54de66e06c7dfa7041d536d5d9053aa86891566071482846d0238

The most important climate votes you've never heard of are coming up this spring during banks’ and insurance companies' shareholder meetings. These meetings are where they hold elections
for their boards of directors and vote on shareholder proposals—some of which, if passed, could help combat banks' funding of climate chaos.
We're calling on asset managers BlackRock, Vanguard, Fidelity, and State Street to leverage their power and urge banks to take action on climate. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=57b9056efc4bd

The Inflation Reduction Act Is Driving a Renewed Pivot to Green Energy <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=57b9056efc4bdbbd4e82d24c0f4303556827de872ea5c590df1fdec0124baf2cd95a1fbe657b3c6f029ddaa3

The states reaping the most from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) tend to be those mainly represented by Republican members of Congress, even though not a single Republican in the House
or Senate voted for the climate bill to pass.
But that isn't stopping manufacturers in their states from enjoying the benefits of going renewable. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=57b9056efc4bdbbd3c6ae55bfe7e1c09ef36fbe5832eff0e24fe2b6a7e
