This year's national theme is Let’s Get to Work: Climate Change, Infrastructure and Innovation. The conference will kick-off with an opening plenary featuring Sierra Club Executive Director Michael Brune, followed by two days of workshops, and will conclude with a lobby day on Capitol Hill. There will be a number of panels bringing together an exciting mix of environmentalists, labor union leaders, and energy specialists. The event is an excellent opportunity to build coalitions around good jobs that are also good for the environment. Conference details can be found at http://www.greenjobsconference.org/
The Sierra Club is happy to announce that we will be sponsoring a delegation to attend the conference. We hope to bring a diverse group of Sierra Club volunteers, members, and other community partners to this event. This year we are also happy to be coordinating with the Sierra Student Coalition to bring a number of youth leaders and activists to the conference to expand networking opportunities and build new alliances. Being a part of the Sierra Club’s sponsored delegation includes paid registration fee, lodging, and travel. We are looking to maximize participation with a more limited budget than in years past. The state of Iowa is being offered three full scholarships to participate this year. Please contact Mike Carberry, who is putting together a list of interested individuals, to find out more information and get involved!--
