A Liveable New Jersey for All
We can do a lot to mobilize against climate change right here in New Jersey. Local actions can have far-reaching consequences. We’re working to keep dangerous, unnecessary gas pipelines from crisscrossing our state. We’ve helped shut down outdated dirty coal plants. We’re promoting wind and solar energy, clean transportation, and joining environmental justice communities in their fight to keep polluters from adding to their existing environmental burdens.

Multiple events (map only)>>> Data Center & Warehouse Committee - Join us! <<<
The Data Center and Warehouse Committee is committed to reining in the explosive growth of data centers throughout New Jersey. Formerly, it was warehouses that were popping up in both high-density urban locations and open rural areas with few roads capable of handling 18-wheeler traffic. Today, massive data centers are seemingly being built everywhere, driven by the growth of AI (artificial intelligence), cryptocurrency and with high-demand needs for land, electricity and water.
The Data Center & Warehouse Committee welcomes new volunteer members. Currently we meet on Zoom once a month. Contact co-chairs Gary Frederick and Stan Greberis by email at garyfrederick@sierraclub.newjersey.com and sgreberis@newjersey.sierraclub.org to learn more.

>>> Clean Energy Committee - Join us! <<<
The New Jersey Sierra Club Clean Energy Committee advocates for non-polluting sources of electricity on New Jersey’s grid, including wind, solar, and battery storage.
In 2026, the Clean Energy Committee will be bringing attention to the role of our regional grid operator, PJM, and the demands of new data centers, and the significant increases to the cost of electricity for New Jersey residents.
Additionally, the Clean Energy Committee works with the NJ Chapter Building Electrification Committee to educate the public about the many benefits of switching their homes and vehicles from dirty oil or gas to electricity from clean energy sources such as solar or wind.
The Clean Energy Committee welcomes new volunteer members. Currently we meet on Zoom on the third Tuesday night of each month. Contact co-chairs Denise Brush and Howard Stein by email at offshorewind@newjersey.sierraclub.org to learn more.

Explore the Outdoors
Understanding the value of preserving our precious resources happens naturally when people have the chance to experience the outdoors. The New Jersey Chapter sponsors hikes and other outings, and also has programs for youth from communities that have limited access to the outdoors. Join us in exploring New Jersey’s beautiful open spaces. Check out a Beginners Hiking Guide authored by Inspiring Connections Outdoors.
