Make your voice heard! City council decisions, regulatory actions, legislation in Austin; we need to be ready to act at a moment's notice to support the good and stop the bad. Sometimes all it takes is a simple phone call or email message to sway the opinion of our local elected leaders and officials. Contact us and we will add you to our Alamo Sierra Club Action Alert Email List. You don't have to be a Sierra Club member to receive our alerts, (but we do hope you'll join us).

	The choices we make and the products we buy demonstrate our commitment to maintaining a healthy planet. We know you want to do your share to curb global warming, so the Sierra Club has prepared a list of the top ten ways you can help. Share these ideas with family, friends and coworkers.
