Message From the Group Chair, Karen
Dear Piedmont Plateau Sierrans and Friends,
- Due to our love for natural spaces and the essential need for environmental justice and advocacy, we are guided by the strong mission of the Sierra Club:
- "to practice and promote the responsible use of the earth's ecosystems and resources;
- to educate and enlist humanity to protect and restore the quality of the natural and human environment,
- and to use all lawful means to carry out these objectives."
The Piedmont Plateau Group is doing its best to carry forth a leadership role within our communities
- PPG has worked along with 7-Directions of Service to stop the construction of a large methane pipeline.
- We have partnered with the Haw River Assembly for stream clean up.
- We have led the way to increase public awareness, by providing monthly educational programs.
- We have work with Guilford Clean Power Now to increase
- We are currently engaged in the effort to reduce 1,4 dioxane and PFAS pollution in the Deep River.
- We will be engaging in the state wide effort to hold Duke Energy to its commitment of increasing clean energy generation.
- There are many good things happening for our communities and many beautiful sites to see within the Piedmont Plateau!
I look forward to working and interacting with you!
