Take Action

1. Protect Families: Demand Lead-Free Drinking Water Now!

There is no safe level of lead exposure, yet millions of American families still lack access to healthy, clean drinking water because of our federal government's failure to replace lead pipes nationwide. The Biden administration's newly proposed solution doesn't go far enough to address the crisis, allowing some areas to delay action for decades. We need your help to demand stronger, speedier clean water protections for all Americans.

TAKE ACTION: Tell the EPA to finalize and strengthen the lead and copper rules so more families do not suffer the dangerous health impacts of lead pipes.

2. Fight for Offshore Wind in New York and All States Nationwide

Last month, the South Fork Wind Wind Farm in New York turned on its first offshore wind turbine, taking the first step toward becoming America's first commercial offshore wind project. South Fork is already powering up Long Island and pointing the way toward a cleaner, healthier future -- and leaders all across the United States need to hear there is strong support for offshore wind and a transition to clean, renewable energy.

Add your name now to support more offshore wind development nationwide.

3. Making Progress but More Action Needed to Block Liquefied Gas Exports

After receiving more than 360,000 petitions from Sierra Club supporters and partners protesting the CP2 liquefied "natural" gas (LNG) facility, the Biden administration has announced that it will consider updating how it decides whether these toxic exports are in the public interest. Our efforts are working -- but we need to apply even more pressure right now to stop these disastrous projects that fuel the climate crisis and raise energy prices.

Help keep up the pressure: Send a message to President Biden and demand he stop this carbon bomb before it's too late.

2. Writers of Color Are Redefining Nature Writing for a New Generation

As the environmental movement continues to grapple with its historical connections to racism and xenophobia, a new generation of poets, essayists, memoirists, and novelists of color is taking up space in a genre that has frequently excluded their perspectives. New nature writers of color are asking a thought-provoking, radically important question: Who should have the power to narrate what the earth wants?

Read on to learn more about how this new generation of writers is rebooting this centuries-old genre.
