The Biden administration can continue to cement their climate legacy! Tell the Biden admin to shut down the Line 5 pipeline. Enbridge's pipeline, operated by a multi-billion dollar corporation, illegally trespasses through northern Wisconsin, violating the Bad River Band's sovereignty. This pipeline puts nearby water, plants, animals, and communities at risk of an oil spill and exacerbates the climate crisis. The proposed reroute construction threatens significant damage and would extend this risk for decades. This is our chance to tell the Army Corps and the Biden Administration about our concerns. Join us in submitting a comment and adding a personal message before August 4th at the 🔗 sc.org/ShutDownLine5

During her time in office as Vice President Kamala Harris has proven that she will lead the United States into a climate focused future. The Biden-Harris administration took over 300 actions to protect the environment and combat climate change. Kamala laid out a bold climate platform in her campaign in 2020 and has pushed for clean energy, holding corporate polluters accountable. Her leadership is crucial to continuing progress toward our collective 2030 climate goals.

🌍✨ While renewable energy tech like solar and wind has surged ahead, large industrial production still lags in going green. Crucial materials like steel are predominantly produced using coal, contributing to 9% of global carbon emissions! 🌫️ This not only impacts our climate but also exposes communities and workers to toxic pollution. Sierra Club’s new Industrial Transformation campaign aims to change this, proving that we can have a strong economy, good-paying jobs, and clean air and water! 💪🏭 Join us on July 31 for a virtual town hall with Rep. Ro Khanna to discuss the future of a green, equitable industrial sector and the transformative STEEL Act. Let’s work together to build clean manufacturing processes and ensure a sustainable future for all! 🌱👷 https://bit.ly/3Wic41T

In another win for Beyond Coal, an aging municipal coal plant in Ohio will be retired — and replaced by clean solar power and battery storage. This closure means that the local community can look forward to a future with less coal pollution in their air and water, a steady supply of cheap, clean energy, and a healthier planet for their kids and grandkids.

How do you turn an aging coal plant into a beacon of clean energy? With a $129M US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) grant, Cuyahoga County is doing just that. With the City of Painesville’s retirement announcement, Sierra Club’s Beyond Coal campaign has retired 73% of US coal. 145 plants left to go!

Cuyahoga County has secured an @EPA grant for $129 million, retiring Painesville’s aging coal plant. Now, they can build new solar and install battery storage to power their homes and community. The grant will also restore habitats, expand tree coverage, and create pollinator habitats. This is a major victory for Painesville, Cleveland, and Cuyahoga County in the fight against climate change. https://bit.ly/4bW0P4X

The Sierra Club is proud to endorse @KamalaHarris for President. The Biden-Harris administration has made historic strides in environmental and climate action. We must continue this progress with Harris at the helm. Our future depends on it! https://bit.ly/4d9VtEa

Project 2025 is a right-wing power grab that endangers our democracy and environment. By giving corporate polluters control, it bypasses Congress, undermines the will of the people, and increases pollution. This corruption must be stopped to protect our air, water, and democratic values.
