Just two weeks post-election, we're already feeling just how chaotic, shocking, and exhausting the coming Trump administration is likely to be. With all that's coming at us, it can feel like we need to be in emergency mode all the time – but that isn't sustainable! These next four years will be a marathon, not a sprint. Practicing self care and community care is more important now than ever.
Remember that it's OK to not feel OK, and some of us might not be ready to take action yet. Get support by talking with friends and family, or step away from the news and try to get outside. Whenever you're up to it, the Sierra Club will be here to help you get involved.
Together, we will be a force of nature. |

There's no sugarcoating this. A second Trump presidency will be hard and dangerous. As we grieve, we also need to recommit to fighting back to protect our communities and our future. The Sierra Club is preparing strategies at the local, state, and federal level to block Trump and the extreme MAGA agenda. We don't yet know everything that's coming, but we will need to be ready to act at a moment's notice. Can we call on you to get involved?
Add your name: Sign the pledge to defend our communities, our climate, and our future. |

| Trump Is Coming Back to Power. Now What?
Leaving the Paris Agreement (again). Opening up public lands for oil drilling. Slashing rebates and tax credits for heat pumps and electric vehicles. Polluting our air and water. Stalling clean energy jobs. These are just some of the things we can expect Trump to attempt in his next administration. But can we fight back? Can we stop some of these harmful actions? Yes.
Here are six climate and environmental takeaways from the election. |
