🌿 Calling All Sierra Club Members and Supporters!
Join us and our Beyond Gas Maryland coalition partners on December 5th for an impactful evening of propelling Maryland into the future. Together with special guest speakers we will work to push Maryland to transition off gas, update the EmPOWER Maryland energy efficiency program, and fund low-income electrification.
We're weaving change—connecting respiratory health, healthy homes, green jobs, and smart growth and transit into one powerful vision.
What you can expect
The event will include a mix of education, discovery, and action. Community members will have the opportunity to engage in conversation with coalition members and hear from local elected officials. We will learn about how Maryland’s energy efficiency programs can have an impact on health, housing, and climate. Let’s turn our people power into statewide initiatives!
Here's the deal
The Sierra Club has pledged to bring at least 30 passionate individuals to this event. We're making a powerful statement to Maryland legislators that the Sierra Club community is all in for energy efficiency! So, we're counting on YOU to make it happen!
Please join us and bring your friends, family, and neighbors!

This event is sponsored by the Beyond Gas Maryland Coalition, which includes the Sierra Club, Action in Montgomery (AIM), and Interfaith Power & Light. The event will also be led by AIM’s sister organizations, Anne Arundel Connecting Together (ACT) and People Acting Together in Howard (PATH). The event is also aligned with dozens of "A Time to Build" actions across the country coordinated by Dayenu: A Jewish Call to Climate Action. “A Time to Build” events are centered around the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah and are aimed at collectively ensuring investments in climate, jobs, and justice reach every community – especially those that need them the most – without delay.
Mark your calendars, spread the word, and let's make a meaningful impact together!
See you there!
