Take Action: Stop Exposing Communities to Toxic Coal Ash
Take Action: Will the U.S. Export-Import Bank Undermine Obama's Climate Plan? Last month President Obama pledged to end public funding for overseas coal plants as part of his Climate Action Plan, but the U.S. Export-Import Bank may undermine his leadership when it votes on whether or not to support a dirty coal plant in Vietnam. The bank has a long history of financing massive fossil-fuel projects with our tax payer dollars -- will it now change course and live up to Obama's promise? Tell the Export-Import Bank to stop supporting dirty coal.

Mission Outdoors: Healing Veterans With Wilderness Sierra Club Mission Outdoors staffer Joshua Brandon is an Army veteran who has personally experienced how transforming the outdoors can be. Now he's aiming to get even more veterans outside. "(Veterans) get out into nature, they fall in love with it, and they want to protect it. The Sierra Club can help vets, and the military can help us. We're natural allies," says Joshua in this column by Sierra Club National Program Director Sarah Hodgdon. |
