Other Issues and Actions

The Sierra Club in Metro Washington has a new publication:

Better Communities, Less Traffic--Taming the Sprawl Monster
A Citizen's Guide to Protecting and Preserving Your Community

A web-based version is available at: http://www.wholeliving.com/dcsprawl.

We have 50,000 copies to distribute and we'd like your assistance in that effort. If you can take them to your next community association or other civic group meeting that would be great. You can also leave them at libraries and bookstores, etc.

The Surface Transportation Policy Project's new report Potholes & Politics 1998: The Money's There but the Roads are a Mess. What's Going On?

Is available at: http://www.transact.org/potholes/title.htm.

We maintain an event calendar of forthcoming meetings, seminars, and legislative events. Check out our current action calendar.

The Sierra Club's legislative alerts and information on legislation we are supporting in the current legislative session are posted here: Legislative Alerts

Weigh in with the Greater Washington Board of trade. They are seeking comments on the Wilson Bridge monstrosity, the Inter County Connector, and other local transportation projects. Read our view on things, from which you can link to their web page and comment.

We have a Smart Growth letter writing campaign. Many of our public officials have been backing (and subsidizing) developers for far too long. To see what you can do to help and join in, see our background information and sample letter

This page is your site and it has ample room to grow.
Your ideas are welcomed, encouraged, and needed.
Feel free to e-mail me with suggestions, ideas, data, and/or information.
