Sierra Club Green Home

Beyond it’s main website and this site dedicated to providing green home resources the Sierra Club is beginning to support and help develop additional websites that can further its mission to explore, enjoy and protect the planet.  Below you can read details about sites already operating and ones simply under development.

Climate Crossroads

ClimateCrossroads.org, fuses social-networking opportunities with fresh environmental journalism and authoritative global warming expertise – giving it the ability to connect users with a wealth of multimedia information, expert opinions, and each other. Climatecrossroads.org, created by the Sierra Club, is the go-to site for people eager -after eight years of inaction on global warming – to share ideas, information, opinions and opportunities to make real and urgent progress on climate change.

Sierra Student Coalition

The Sierra Student Coalition (SSC) is a broad network of high school and college students from across the country working to protect the environment. The SSC is the youth-led chapter of the Sierra Club, the nation’s oldest and largest grassroots environmental organization.

Our mission is simple: “to train, empower, and organize youth to run effective campaigns that result in tangible environmental victories and that develop leaders for the environmental movement.”

With more than 250 groups nationwide, the SSC develops environmental leaders through our award-winning grassroots trainings programs and works to maximize our campus-based effectiveness through the creation and maintenance of state and regional networks of high school and college students.

Sierra Trails

Sierra Club Trails is first and foremost a searchable library of trails described by people like you, and then edited, added to, and updated using a wiki by other people who have joined Sierra Club Trails. It is also a community of people who love to hike, paddle, bike, bird watch, stargaze, fish, identify wildflowers, take photographs, observe wildlife and in other ways enjoy the outdoors. A visitor to this site might simply search for details about a particular mountain trail, or settle in and create a profile, add trails, post events, lead a discussion, share photos, comment on our On Track blog, and create a group around a particular place or interest.

All are welcome to use this free resource, whether or not you’re a member of the Sierra Club. We hope you’ll join Trails to enhance your enjoyment of the planet’s special places and also inspire or inform others in their own outdoor adventures.
