It is without question that the Sierra Club is a powerful environmental organization with well over 700,000 members. Here in Oregon, our membership has risen to over 21,000. We urge you to consider joining a committee at your group level or at the chapter level. Our projects are varied and diverse, and it is through grassroots volunteerism that we educate the public to protect and restore the quality of Oregon's natural and human environment. The Oregon Chapter can use your help in any one of these areas:

  • Protecting the Tillamook and Clatsop State Forests.
  • Saving the salmon runs on the Columbia and Snake Rivers.
  • Halting ski expansion on Mt. Ashland.
  • Keeping intact the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument.
  • Attending to Eastside grazing and forestry issues.
  • Voicing disapproval on unnecessary new power plants.
  • Reducing commercial agriculture and toxic pesticide use in the Klamath Basin's National Wildlife Refuge.
  • Helping with endorsements, election work and proactive legislation.
  • Opposing the killing of half the cougar population in two study sites.
  • Coordinating federal forest strategies throughout the state.
  • Promoting population stabilization.
This list is just scratching the surface. Let one of our statewide issue coordinators know you want to get involved. Call or e-mail our State Conservation Coordinator and Office Manager (503-238-0442) to learn about priority issues and volunteer opportunities.
