It is
important for a conservation organization like the Sierra
Club to focus on specific issues. By having national, state
and local entities working in conjunction, we can best attack
local and regional issues with our grassroots activism. You
can energize our efforts! If you would like to be involved
with the any campaign - see the contact information on the
specific page or contact contactus@4lakes.org.

Doing
More with Less:
Sierra Club worked with Alders Larry Palm and Brian Solomon
to introduce an ordinance that will require energy efficient
lighting in Madison's rental properties. This is a win
for everyone, saving both tenants and landlords millions
in energy costs while cutting global warming pollution
by more than 35,000 tons -- all by simply switching to
energy efficient light bulbs.
