Contact others

You can help us reach out to other potential supporters in the Club - this is perhaps one of the most important things you can do!
 
Stay involved and contact other Sierra Club members. It is crucial to widely disseminate complete and factual information on this important issue which goes to the heart of Sierra Club mission, principles and tradition. Discuss this issue with other Sierra Club members, and ask them to contact us for further information. Discuss the issue at meetings, outings, and hikes. Print out our overview sections and our numbers graph for reference.
 
If you are willing to speak to an audience (large or small), we can work with you to help make arrangements, call supporters in your area, and provide background material.
 
If you are willing to contact others in the Club, we can provide you with names of supporters in your area.
 
 
 

Write a letter

Write a letter to the editor of your local Sierra Club Group newsletter and your Chapter newsletter. Letters supporting a comprehensive U.S. population policy are needed, as well as letters focusing on population stabilization in other countries. If you with to focus on immigration and repeal of the 1996 "neutrality policy" restricting discussion of the immigration-population issue, keep in mind the following points:
 

1. It's the numbers we're concerned about. The impact of mass immigration on the environment and quality of life for future generations (of all species) can not be ignored.
    
   
2. This is not a racist or anti-immigrant or even an anti-immigration issue, although opponents often play the "race card" when their other arguments fall short. (See SUSPS' Statement of Principles and Frequently Asked Questions for more information about our position). This is an environmental issue, originating out of concern for the environment which we as Sierra Club members have fought long and hard to protect. Overpopulation and overimmigration are destroying our environment which we have fought so hard to preserve.

The Sierra Club encourages letters to the editor of chapter and group newsletters. Also write a letter to the editor of your local newspaper. It is important to bring the overpopulation/overimmigration/environment issue into focus. There have been very few articles on the population-environment connection.
