Here are other ways you can get involved right away:

If you want to be involved in local campaigns → Attend a committee meeting

Passionate about transportation policy? Want to stop new fossil fuel infrastructure in the Bay Area? Have ideas for improving public parkland? The Bay Chapter's all-volunteer issue committees and regional group committees are responsible for the bulk of the work of the chapter, including:

  • Responding to immediate environmental threats
  • Deciding local conservation policy
  • Planning social, educational, and activist events
  • Making political endorsements

Our issue committees cover energy & climatewatertransportation & compact growthEast Bay public landszero waste, and our region's National Parks. Use these links to find contact information, and email leaders to find out about the next committee meeting. If you have more general interests or want to get involved at the most local level, attend a meeting of your regional group. These meetings are open to all Club members, so feel free to show up, listen in, and share your ideas.

If you're an outdoor adventurer → Take a hike, and become an activity leader
