Say goodbye to the last printed issue of the
Sierra Club Northeast Ohio Group Newsletter! In an effort to reduce
waste, we're switching to an online electronic format. By moving online,
we'll save trees, ink, fossil fuels used in mail transportation, and,
of course, money. The newsletter currently costs the Sierra Club about
$2000 per printed issue. Using an electronic format, each issue will
cost about $60. So in just one year, we'll be able to put almost $12,000
of your membership dues toward conservation efforts!
Please signup for the electronic newsletter.
Once we have your email address, we'll
send you a bi-monthly email with the contents of each newsletter
and links to the full
articles online.
But that's not all! We're also on Facebook! Join us there to
get updates of events, meet other Sierra Club members in our area,
and post your own photos, events, and activities. Once you sign into
Facebook, you can search for "Northeast Ohio Sierra Club" and
just click "join group" to become a group member!
If you have absolutely no Internet access, please leave us a
message at (440) 843-7272 and be sure to include your name, address,
and telephone number. We'll find a way to print the newsletter and
mail it to you until you do have Internet access. Thanks again for
helping us make this great cost-saving switch! |

The City of Cleveland's 
Do you know of a local environmental issue in need
of attention? Do you have inside information on what's
going on in your city or township? With over 5,000
members in Northeast Ohio we count on you to be the
Club's eyes and ears of the region. While the Federal
government and large corporations continue to wreak
havoc on our environment, it is more important than
ever before to act as watchdogs in our own backyards.
For those new to
calling state or federal representatives, it's easier and
less confrontational than it sounds. You will never
speak directly with your rep or senator - an aide
will answer the phone, take brief notes plus your name and city (sometimes), and that's it.
