- Alaska Chapter of the Sierra Club
Alaska Chapter of the Sierra Club
Welcome to Sierra Club Alaska! Alaska is truly the Great Land: from the vibrant tundra plains of the Arctic to the productive wetlands of the Yukon-Kuskokwim delta in the West, from the vast forests and tall peaks of the Interior to the ancient Tongass and mighty fjords of Southeast. Sierra Club Alaska works to ensure a future as great as the land itself. We are working to shield Alaska from the mentality that has drilled and logged and developed away much of the open spaces in the Lower 48. We are striving for an Alaska based on renewable energy, healthy communities, sustainable use of our resources, and preservation of our wild places. Find out how you can connect with other Alaskans, learn about current threats to our state, and help support the work of the Sierra Club.
