In an extremely close 50-49 vote, the Senate passed a resolution to overturn a mining ban in the watershed of Minnesota's Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.

📢 Annual @sierraclub.org scorecard ranks 33 major U.S. public pensions and reveals most are failing to adequately manage the climate-related financial risks to their investments through proxy voting.  See how your state stacks up:

‼️The U.S. Senate could vote as soon as TODAY or later this week on whether to protect or pollute the watershed of northern Minnesota's Boundary Waters Wilderness. Act now: Tell your Senators to vote NO. 📞 1-202-816-5239 ✍️ sc.org/boundarywaters

Some pensions argue they can't adopt climate strategies, but action by peers shows that steering $$ toward investments that advance decarbonization and climate resilience is feasible, financially prudent & fully aligned with fiduciary duty. Read on👇 www.esgdive.com/news/are-us-...

Consulting companies with connections to oil and gas are using AI public comments, some that allegedly are fraudulent, to flood public agencies with public comments asking to vote down clean air efforts. Groups are demanding that California attorney general investigate.

🚨🚨 We are suing the Trump Administration over its decision to strip Endangered Species Act protection from imperiled species threatened by oil-and-gas offshore drilling activities in the Gulf of Mexico.

👏👏 Jimmy Kimmel got it exactly correct! Wind is an endless clean resource capable of powering millions of American homes and businesses. Beyond keeping the lights on, offshore wind also helps to stabilize unaffordable energy bills and protect against fossil fuel price spikes.

Welcome to March Badness! This year's tournament pits the 64 of the worst anti-environmental actions from the Trump Administration for our air, water, communities, climate, clean energy, and lands against each other. 😬 sc.org/marchbadness

Did your power bills go up last month? It might be because Donald Trump is forcing old coal plants to stay online, and making YOU pay to keep them running. Listen to Sierra Club Senior Attorney Greg Wannier answer how this is possible ⬇️

New documents obtained by the Sierra Club show the Trump Administration’s chaotic approach to censoring signage on public lands as part of its effort to erase history on climate change, slavery, and Indigenous peoples. More via @nytimes.com: www.nytimes.com/2026/03/16/c...

While we set our clocks forward for Daylight Saving Time, @epaleezeldin.govpeeps.us is taking us back in time. Attempts to weaken and roll back methane pollution protections that #CutMethane take us backward on progress. sc.org/epa

🛢️In 2024, Trump told Big Oil execs he'd protect their interests if they spent $1 BILLION to elect him. Now, he's upheld his end of the deal. New @senatebudget.bsky.social report details how Trump gave Fossil Fuel companies a $3.5 BILLION *annual* tax cut to continue polluting our planet.

Tonight, as costs for American families continue to soar and environmental and public health protections are weakened by his administration, Donald Trump delivered the first official State of the Union address of his second term. 🔗 bit.ly/3OJVGH8

“If asset owners want to protect their investments from climate impacts, they must stop asset managers from financing the companies fueling the crisis. Too many still aren’t acting," write Sierra Club & Reclaim Finance in @climateandcap.bsky.social.

Trump’s EPA just rolled back critical, lifesaving Mercury and Air Toxics Standards, allowing dirty coal plants to release more mercury, arsenic, and other dangerous pollutants into our air.

New @nyccomptroller.bsky.social @marklevinenyc.bsky.social & NYC pension trustees are weighing a $40B+ move from BlackRock over its climate failures — which could set a key national precedent, writes Sierra Club ED Loren Blackford in @crainsnewyork.bsky.social:

The Sierra Club is suing the Environmental Protection Agency over its rollback of key climate protections, arguing the move is illegal, unscientific, and harmful to public health.

The Sierra Club is saddened to learn of the passing of Rev Jesse Jackson. Civil rights leader, environmental justice advocate, and a strong tireless voice for those this nation too often fails to hear. We send condolences to his family, loved ones, and all who admired him as we celebrate his legacy.

In a new @newsweek.com, leaders from the @sierraclub.org, @nrdc.org, Environmental Defense Fund, and @earthjustice.org warn that the Trump administration’s latest Environmental Protection Agency pollution policy puts corporate profits ahead of public health.

On this season of Coal is Blind, the choice between renewables and coal may seem easy, yet Trump can't get enough of his toxic relationship with coal power plants. Trump just announced $175 million to upgrade six aging coal plants instead of retiring them.

Today, in a brazen assault on the health and welfare of the American public, the Trump administration announced its rule revoking the Environmental Protection Agency’s longstanding greenhouse gas endangerment finding under the federal Clean Air Act.

The Tennessee Valley Authority has announced plans to potentially roll back retirement dates for the Kingston and Cumberland coal plants, locking the region into coal energy for years to come. These inefficient coal plants will only add more burden to our budgets and pollute our communities.

🚨 BREAKING: Trump is moving to eliminate the EPA’s Endangerment Finding — one of the strongest legal tools we have to fight climate pollution. We will fight this. Polluters should pay — not the public. Read more at our statement bit.ly/4aNcAwb

The U.S. Senate is expected to vote NEXT WEEK on a resolution to repeal protections for the Boundary Waters watershed -- putting clean water and communities at serious risk. Act now: Tell your Senators to vote NO. sc.org/boundarywaters

Michigan is now the 11th state to sue Big Oil for its climate lies. 👏 👏 In a groundbreaking antitrust suit, Michigan says the "cartel" of ExxonMobil, Chevron, Shell, BP, and the American Petroleum Institute conspired to block clean energy, protect fossil fuels, and drive up costs for consumers.

🚨 Our new scorecard reveals U.S. public pensions are lagging on investing in climate solutions like clean energy & resilience infrastructure, despite knowing that climate change massively threatens millions of public sector workers' retirement savings.

California pension @calpers.bsky.social invested $60B in 'climate solutions'. So why does that include fossil fuels?  As the largest U.S. public pension, what CalPERS does matters, writes Allie Lindstrom & Jakob Evans for @calmatters.org. calmatters.org/commentary/2...

Oil and gas companies are making record profits, while we pay the price of the climate chaos they cause. We're working to Make Polluters Pay. Join a Virtual Action Hour event on Thurs, Jan 15, to make polluters pay to clean up their mess. @polluterspay.bsky.social sc.org/PollutersAct...

"The project reflects the broader mission of the @sierraclub.org, the nation’s largest grassroots environmental organization, which works to protect clean air and water, promote clean energy, preserve wild places and empower communities through education and advocacy." 2/

This is beautiful and inspiring. On a cold winters night in West Virginia, 56 people gathered together to make a quilt, "connect and imagine new ways to confront climate change through one of Appalachia’s most storied folk traditions." @sierraclub.org 1/

The Sierra Club and all of civil society depend on free speech, peaceful assembly, and a functioning democracy to create a brighter future for us all. The Sierra Club stands firm in our commitment to protecting our rights, dignity, and safety.

We honor the life and legacy of Betty Reid Soskin, who passed away this week at age 104 — a truth teller, historian, and the nation’s oldest active national park ranger when she retired at age 100. Read more about her life in a Sierra Magazine interview in 2015 www.sierraclub.org/sierra/2015-...

As 2025 wraps up, we’re celebrating clean transportation wins — despite constant roadblocks. From protecting the national EV charging network to opposing federal climate rollbacks, advocates kept progress moving. sc.org/CleanTranspo... @katherinejulia.bsky.social

This year, our connection nature has never faced a greater threat — from the firings of national park stewards to the efforts to sell off public lands. Here's how our Outdoors For All campaign met the moment in 2025. bit.ly/44teqzR

In 2025, while much of the financial sector backtracked on climate action, one key part of the system stepped up: public pension funds managing trillions in workers’ savings. 🏦 Here’s how our Sustainable Finance Campaign helped drive progress this year: bit.ly/3MH1q3t

"This move shows just how far the administration will go to sidestep our nation’s complex history." The Interior Department's recent decision to end free entry days at national parks on MLK Day and Juneteenth is "a step backward."

Freedom of Information Act #FOIA request uncovers documents revealing many Americans oppose the Trump administration's efforts to whitewash history on public lands. www.sierraclub.org/press-releas...

In 2025, much of the financial sector backtracked on climate action — but one major pillar stepped up: public pensions that manage trillions in workers’ savings. 🫰 Here’s our @sierraclub.org campaign year-end review of key developments & what’s next 👇 www.sierraclub.org/articles/202...

New @reclaimfinance.org report endorsed by @sierraclub.org reveals pension funds and other asset owners are failing to stop asset managers like BlackRock from supporting fossil fuel expansion.

Thank you, ‪@hickenlooper.senate.gov for being the first Senator to publicly oppose the nomination of Sell-off Steve Pearce to be Director of the Bureau of Land Management! Our public lands are not for sale.  📢 Call your Senators to urge them to vote NO on "Sell Off Steve" Pearce: 1-855-980-5638

"Gutting the (gas-mileage) program will make cars burn more gas and American families burn more cash," said  @katherinejulia.bsky.social, director of the Sierra Club’s Clean Transportation for All program.

Trump and Republicans just slashed clean energy tax credits that help families save on solar and home upgrades. ⏳ You still have limited time to claim these savings before they’re gone. Learn how you can take advantage of these tax credits before December 31, 2025! ⚡🏡 sc.org/taxcredits

Climate change threatens our economy and millions of workers' retirement security. NYC pensions can set a powerful precedent: asset managers who fail to confront climate risk should expect to lose clients to those that do better. @sierraclub.org statement ⬇️ www.sierraclub.org/press-releas...

👀 If the NYC pension boards adopt the @nyccomptroller.bsky.social recommendations and move BlackRock's $42B mandate to other asset managers, it could be one of the most consequential climate-related actions ever taken by a pension fund in the US or anywhere in the world.

The Trump administration is proposing massive entrance fee increases at national parks for non-residents in 2026. This will do nothing more than set parks up to become playgrounds for the super-rich. @altnps.bsky.social Full statement 👇

President Trump and his cabinet secretaries are enamored with coal, a dying energy source whose operating costs outweigh the revenue it generates. So who’s asking for this? Hint - it’s not the average American.

Holly Bender recently joined her daughter on a field trip to the Ice Age Trail in Wisconsin. @sierraclubwi.bsky.social   It was a perfect backdrop to hand out Every Kid Outdoors passes providing a year of free entry to national parks for 4th graders & families.
