FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1, DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION MISSION:	AT THE SIERRA CLUB, WE BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF TOGETHERNESS AND THAT WE ARE STRONGER TOGETHER. TOGETHER, WE REMAIN COMMITTED TO THE FIGHT FOR A HEALTHY CLIMATE BUILT ON A FOUNDATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL, RACIAL, ECONOMIC, AND GENDER JUSTICE - A FUTURE WHERE ALL PEOPLE BENEFIT FROM A HEALTHY, THRIVING PLANET AND A DIRECT CONNECTION TO NATURE. AS THE CLIMATE CRISIS AND DEEPLY ENTRENCHED SYSTEMIC RACISM FUEL INEQUITY, WE WILL CONTINUE TO FIGHT FOR A BOLD, TRANSFORMATIONAL AGENDA THAT RECOGNIZES THE INTERCONNECTEDNESS BETWEEN OUR PLANET, OUR HUMANITY, AND OUR DEMOCRACY. BY RECOGNIZING THAT OUR DESTINIES ARE TIED, WE CONTINUE TO NAME THAT ALL THINGS ARE FUNDAMENTALLY CONNECTED, AND THE OVERLAP BETWEEN ECOLOGY, RACE, GENDER, AND REPRESENTATIVE GOVERNMENT WILL MOVE TO EITHER ADVANCE OUR COLLECTIVE HUMANITY OR TO OPPRESS IT.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A, PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS:	OVERVIEW: THROUGHOUT 2023, WE CONTINUED PROGRESS TOWARDS THE GOALS LAID OUT IN OUR 2030 STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK. WE CONTINUE TO APPLY AN ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE LENS TO ALL THE WORK WE DO, UNDERSTANDING THAT CLIMATE JUSTICE IS RACIAL JUSTICE AND NEITHER CAN EXIST INDEPENDENTLY OF EACH OTHER. WE ALSO COMMITTED TO ORGANIZING OUR WORK ALONG THREE CORE PRIORITY AREAS, EACH DEFINED BY THE MOST URGENT CRISES FACING OUR PLANET AND OUR MOVEMENT: 1) THE EXTINCTION CRISIS; 2) THE CLIMATE CRISIS; 3) THE CRISIS OF OUR MOVEMENT NEEDING TO GROW RAPIDLY AND IMMEDIATELY IN ORDER TO SUCCESSFULLY ADDRESS THE FIRST TWO CRISES. WHILE OUR WORK TO PROTECT OUR LANDS, AIR, AND WATER SERVES OUR MISSION TO TACKLE THE EXTINCTION AND CLIMATE CRISES, WE ALSO REMAIN FOCUSED ON THE NECESSITY OF THIS WORK IN PROTECTING PUBLIC HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE. THE SIERRA CLUB IS RISING TO MEET THE CRITICAL AND PIVOTAL MOMENT WE ARE NOW IN AS A COUNTRY AND WORLD COMMUNITY. WE SENT A DELEGATION TO THE COP28 CLIMATE SUMMIT IN DUBAI, WHERE FOR THE FIRST TIME WE ACHIEVED GLOBAL CONSENSUS ON OUR COLLECTIVE NEED TO TRANSITION AWAY FROM FOSSIL FUELS. WE CONTINUED TO EDUCATE ABOUT, PROMOTE, AND HELP UNLOCK THE POWER OF THE UNPRECEDENTED INVESTMENTS IN SOLVING THE CLIMATE CRISIS CONTAINED IN BOLD LEGISLATION LIKE THE INFLATION REDUCTION ACT AND BIPARTISAN INFRASTRUCTURE LAW. A 501(C)(4) ORGANIZATION, SIERRA CLUB ENGAGES IN LOBBYING ACTIVITIES AND ENDORSES CANDIDATE CAMPAIGNS THROUGH AFFILIATED POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEES (PACS). THE SIERRA CLUB FOUNDATION, OUR INDEPENDENT FISCAL SPONSOR, GRANTS US FLEXIBLE 501(C)(3) FUNDING FOR OUR MOST IMPACTFUL CAMPAIGNS TO PROTECT WILDLANDS, SHIFT THE ENERGY SECTOR, AND SUPPORT ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE. THIS STRUCTURAL DELINEATION ALLOWS THE SIERRA CLUB TO MOVE POLICIES THAT PRIORITIZE PEOPLE AND THE PLANET WHILE MAINTAINING FULL COMPLIANCE WITH ALL RULES, INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL, GOVERNING OUR WORK. GRASSROOTS STRONG: THE HEART OF SIERRA CLUB'S ENDURING STRENGTH IS OUR GRASSROOTS NETWORK OF 64 CHAPTERS, STATE AND LOCAL VOLUNTEER GROUPS, OUTINGS LEADERS, MEMBERS, AND ALL OF THE SIERRA CLUB SUPPORTERS AND PARTNERS. THEY ARE WHAT SET US APART AS THE POWERFUL AND UNIQUELY EFFECTIVE ORGANIZATION WE ARE. THE AUTHENTIC LOCAL RELATIONSHIPS OUR CHAPTER STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS CONTINUE TO BUILD IN COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY IS HOW WE ARE GROWING OUR MOVEMENT TO PROTECT OUR LANDS, AIR, AND WATER, AND TACKLE THE CLIMATE AND EXTINCTION CRISES. UNPRECEDENTED CLIMATE ACTION: THE SIERRA CLUB HAS BEEN HARD AT WORK TO ENSURE THE INFLATION REDUCTION ACT (IRA) IS FULLY IMPLEMENTED AND DELIVERS ON OUR CLIMATE GOALS. EXAMPLES OF THIS INCLUDE THE LAUNCH OF THE CLIMATE ADVOCATES PROGRAM THROUGH WHICH VOLUNTEERS ARE BEING TRAINED TO WORK IN THEIR COMMUNITIES TO EDUCATE THEIR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS AND LOBBY THEIR LOCAL AND STATE GOVERNMENTS TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IRA PROGRAMS. OUR BEYOND COAL CAMPAIGN IS WORKING TO PROVIDE MODELING AND LOBBY RURAL ELECTRIC COOPERATIVES ON HOW THEY CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE NEW IRA PROGRAM TO TRANSITION AWAY FROM COAL AND BRING CLEAN ENERGY TO RURAL AMERICA. WE ARE ALSO PUSHING STATE ENERGY OFFICES ACROSS THE COUNTRY TO FINALIZE REBATE PROGRAMS FOR CONSUMER EFFICIENCY AND ELECTRIFICATION PROGRAMS. TRANSPORTATION STANDARDS - PUSHING FOR HISTORIC PUBLIC HEALTH AND CLIMATE REGULATIONS: NEW EMISSIONS STANDARDS FOR LIGHT-, MEDIUM-, AND HEAVY-DUTY VEHICLES PROPOSED BY THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (EPA) WOULD CUT NEARLY 10 BILLION TONS OF CO2 EMISSIONS AND REDUCE RELIANCE ON 20 BILLION BARRELS OF IMPORTED OIL THROUGH 2055. SIERRA CLUB HELPED LEAD THE EFFORT URGING THE EPA TO SET THE STRONGEST POSSIBLE CLEAN VEHICLE STANDARDS THIS YEAR. THROUGHOUT THE CAMPAIGN, HUNDREDS OF SUPPORTERS ATTENDED PRESS EVENTS AND MEETUPS TO SPUR ENTHUSIASM FOR ALL THE BENEFITS OF TRANSITIONING TO ELECTRIC VEHICLES: CLEANER AIR, LESS CLIMATE POLLUTION, HEALTHIER COMMUNITIES, AND MORE SAVINGS FOR FAMILIES. IN 2023, CALIFORNIA ADOPTED TWO MAJOR TRANSPORTATION STANDARDS WHICH REPRESENT FIRST-OF-THEIR-KIND REGULATIONS TO PHASE OUT POLLUTING DIESEL-POWERED VEHICLES AT RAILYARDS AND PORTS. THE LOCOMOTIVE RULE WILL INCREASE THE USE OF ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVES, CUTTING NITROGEN OXIDES EMISSIONS BY 63 TONS PER DAY ACROSS CALIFORNIA AND PREVENTING MORE THAN 3,200 PREMATURE DEATHS. THE ADVANCED CLEAN FLEETS RULE WILL ENSURE THAT FLEET OWNERS TRANSITION FROM DIRTY DIESEL TRUCKS TO ZERO-EMISSION TRUCKS. RETIRED OUR 300TH COAL PLANT: IN 2010, OUR BEYOND COAL CAMPAIGN TOOK ON THE AUDACIOUS GOAL OF SHUTTING DOWN THE COUNTRY'S WORST SOURCE OF CLIMATE POLLUTION - AMERICA'S OVER 500 OPERATIONAL COAL PLANTS. THIS YEAR, WE REACHED AN AMAZING MILESTONE, WITH 300 OF THOSE PLANTS NOW HAVING BEEN RETIRED FOR GOOD. IN ADDITION TO THE REDUCTION IN CLIMATE POLLUTION, THESE RETIREMENTS HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY DROPPED LEVELS OF HARMFUL AIR AND WATER POLLUTION, WHILE ALSO SPURRING THE DEMAND FOR CLEANER, RENEWABLE SOURCES OF ENERGY. PROTECTED LANDSCAPES FROM EXTRACTION: SIGNIFICANT STEPS WERE TAKEN THIS YEAR TO PROTECT THREATENED LANDS AND WATERS FROM DESTRUCTIVE RESOURCE EXTRACTION. IN JANUARY, THE DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR ANNOUNCED A 20-YEAR MINERAL WITHDRAWAL TO PROTECT BOUNDARY WATERS CANOE AREA WILDERNESS IN MINNESOTA. THAT WAS FOLLOWED IN JUNE BY AN ORDER FROM INTERIOR SECRETARY DEB HAALAND PROHIBITING NEW FEDERAL OIL AND GAS LEASING WITHIN 10 MILES OF THE CHACO CULTURE NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK IN NEW MEXICO. THE BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT ALSO EMBARKED ON A LANDMARK RULEMAKING PROCESS TO RE-BALANCE MANAGEMENT OF FEDERAL PUBLIC LANDS TO CONSIDER CONSERVATION AS A VALID USE OF PUBLIC LANDS AND WATERS. PRESERVED FORESTS FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS: OUR FOREST CONSERVATION CAMPAIGN SAW SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS THIS YEAR, THANKS TO OUR MEMBERS AND ACTIVISTS. IN JANUARY, PRESIDENT BIDEN REINSTATED THE ROADLESS RULE IN THE TONGASS NATIONAL FOREST, PRESERVING ONE OF THE LAST REMAINING TRACTS OF OLD GROWTH FORESTS IN THE COUNTRY FROM DEVELOPMENT. OLD GROWTH TREES AND MATURE FORESTS ARE SOME OF THE GREATEST TOOLS WE HAVE FOR TAKING ON THE CLIMATE CRISIS, AND THIS YEAR, THE FOREST SERVICE BEGAN THE PROCESS OF UPDATING ITS MANAGEMENT APPROACH TO PRESERVE THEM FROM LOGGING. SECURED MORE PROTECTED LANDS: YEARS OF WORK BY TRIBES, ACTIVISTS, AND SIERRA CLUB MEMBERS AND SUPPORTERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY PAID OFF THIS YEAR AS PRESIDENT BIDEN DESIGNATED FOUR NEW NATIONAL MONUMENTS, INCLUDING AVI KWA AME IN NEVADA, CASTNER RANGE IN TEXAS, AND BAAJ NWAAVJO I'TAH KUKVENI - ANCESTRAL FOOTPRINTS OF THE GRAND CANYON IN ARIZONA. TRIBAL LEADERSHIP WAS ESSENTIAL IN MANY OF THESE EFFORTS, WHICH COLLECTIVELY PROTECTED MORE THAN 1.4 MILLION ACRES OF SPIRITUALLY, CULTURALLY, AND ECOLOGICALLY PRECIOUS LANDSCAPES. WE'RE ALSO CELEBRATING THE DESIGNATION OF THE EMMETT TILL AND MAMIE TILL-MOBLEY NATIONAL MONUMENT, WHICH HONORS THE LIVES AND ROLES OF BOTH IN CATALYZING THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT. THE MONUMENT'S THREE LOCATIONS INCLUDE THE ROBERTS TEMPLE CHURCH OF GOD IN CHRIST IN CHICAGO, WHERE TILL'S FUNERAL WAS HELD; THE TALLAHATCHIE COUNTY COURTHOUSE IN SUMNER, MISSISSIPPI, WHERE THOSE ACCUSED OF KILLING HIM WERE ACQUITTED; AND A TALLAHATCHIE RIVER BANK IN MISSISSIPPI, WHERE EMMETT TILL'S BODY WAS FOUND. CLOSED UNLAWFUL AIR POLLUTION LOOPHOLES: IN JULY, WE SUCCESSFULLY PUSHED THE EPA TO REMOVE THE EMERGENCY AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE PROVISIONS FROM OPERATING PERMIT REGULATIONS IN TITLE V OF THE CLEAN AIR ACT, CLOSING A LOOPHOLE THAT ALLOWED FOSSIL FUEL POWER PLANTS AND INDUSTRIAL FACILITIES TO RELEASE UNLIMITED AMOUNTS OF DANGEROUS AIR POLLUTION DURING STARTUP, SHUTDOWN, AND MALFUNCTION (SSM) EVENTS WITH IMPUNITY. AS LONG AS THESE LOOPHOLES EXIST, FENCELINE AND DOWNWIND COMMUNITIES CAN BE EXPOSED, OFTEN UNKNOWINGLY, TO LIMITLESS AMOUNTS OF SOOT, SMOG, AND TOXIC CHEMICALS, INCLUDING ETHYLENE OXIDE, HYDROGEN CYANIDE, HYDROFLUORIC ACID, SULFURIC ACID, AND OTHER CARCINOGENS AND NEUROTOXICANTS. THE CLEAN AIR ACT IS CLEAR AND COURTS HAVE REPEATEDLY HELD THIS TYPE OF LOOPHOLE UNLAWFUL, YET FOR FAR TOO LONG PEOPLE HAVE CONTINUED TO SUFFER AND DIE FROM EXPOSURE TO TOXIC AIR POLLUTION FROM SSM EVENTS. REGAINED PROTECTIONS FOR GRAY WOLVES: GRAY WOLVES REGAINED FEDERAL PROTECTIONS IN 44 STATES AFTER THEY WERE DELISTED FROM THE ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT UNDER THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION. SIERRA CLUB HAS LONG ADVOCATED FOR THE FULL RECOVERY OF GRAY WOLVES IN THE LOWER 48 AND THEIR CONTINUED PROTECTION UNDER THE ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT. SIERRA CLUB AND OUR PARTNERS, INCLUDING EARTHJUSTICE, PREPARED A LAWSUIT THAT CHALLENGED THE TRUMP-ERA DECISION. WHILE FEDERAL PROTECTION WAS REGAINED IN 44 STATES, WE CONTINUE TO ADVOCATE FOR WOLVES IN MONTANA, IDAHO, AND WYOMING AS WELL AS PARTS OF WASHINGTON, OREGON, AND UTAH, WHICH STILL REQUIRE PROTECTION.
