 Atmosphere & Energy
The energy used to drive our economy has a huge impact on our atmosphere. Sierra Club Canada advocates a sensible mix of solutions: the highest possible energy efficiency, deployment of renewables (wind and solar), reduction in the use of fossil fuels, the phaseout of nuclear power and a shift to the new, innovative technologies.
 Health & Environment
A contaminated environment can hurt our health. Sierra Club Canada works to deliver a healthier environment for a healthy population by working to protect both the quantity and quality of our water, reduce and divert waste, ensure the clean up of toxic sites, and fight the sources of pollution affecting air, water, and land.
 Environmental Education
Biodiversity – otherwise known as the variety of life on Earth – is at risk. Sierra Club of Canada is committed to the long-term health of the planet’s forest, ocean and other ecosystems and the people whose livelihood depends upon them.

 Transition to a Sustainable Economy
Ultimately, the threats of climate change, species extinction, toxic contamination and deforestation are symptoms of a larger problem. Pursuing the solutions, the economic and institutional shifts to deliver a reduced ecological footprint, reduce population growth and assist countries in the developing world to find a path that avoids our mistakes is the work of out programme for a “transition to a sustainable economy”.
