It is
important for a conservation organization like the Sierra Club
to focus on specific issues. By having national, state and
local entities working in conjunction, we can best attack
local and regional issues with our grassroots activism. You
can energize our efforts! If you would like to be involved,
contact
us.
Local
Conservation Issues
A few of the conservation issues of
concern to our Group's members include Ice Age Trail work around
the Chippewa Moraine, Lower Chippewa River habitat preservation,
power plant siting, ORV damage, municipal incinerators, smart
growth, light pollution, Eau Claire River habitat protection,
landfill over-usage, conservation farming, Hoffman Hills
protection, ethanol plants, and wetland preservation. To learn
