Join a Campaign and Make a Difference! The Georgia Chapter is seeking volunteers to help with conservation campaigns. Join a campaign today so you can become familiar with environmental issues in Georgia and throughout the nation. Learn how you, your family, and your community can protect the environment.

No New Coal: Stop LS Power!

The first coal fired power plant in over 30 years has been proposed in Georgia. This energy is not even needed and will be sold out of state. Help us stop this from happening: Join us at www.nonewcoal.org . Or please contact Governor Perdue and tell him this is the wrong direction for Georgia's energy future. Details...


Smart Energy Solutions Campaign

The Smart Energy Solutions Campaign works to promote renewable energy use in Georgia's electrical generation technology mix, clean up existing generation facilities, work to eliminate pollution from existing coal fired power plants and to clean up Georgia's air.


National Forest Campaign

Volunteers for the National Forest Campaign are working to celebrate, protect and restore the biodiversity of Georgia's forests, and to educate the public about this valuable historic and natural resource.


Sprawl Campaign

During the past two years the Sierra Club's "Georgia Challenge to Sprawl Campaign" has successfully used litigation and public education to convince leaders in the Atlanta region to deal with highway-based sprawl. Now we are organizing local and county-based coalitions of environmental organizations, neighborhood associations, and others to support Smart Growth for just and sustainable communities. We are also building a coalition throughout the Atlanta region for our Smart Growth and Smart Transportation agendas.
