Featured Program -Thursday, June 12th - Coronado Forest Management Planning. In 2005 the Coronado National Forest and the Bureau of Land Management began creating new site-based plans that, when completed, will guide forest and grassland management for the next 20 years or more. This process presents a tremendous opportunity for coalitions of concerned citizens and scientists to work in partnership with federal agencies, so that plans strike a balance between protection of diversity and resource use. Because the Coronado is the first National Forest in Arizona to undergo planning under new federal regulations, success in public collaboration here will become the model for the rest of the state. Come hear more about protecting our National Forests at this presentation given by a Sky Island Representative. Northwest Neighborhood Center - 2160 N. 6th Avenue |

The Sierra Club and Your Drinking Water
We want to pass on a legacy of beauty and wild places, clean air and water and a healthy environment to the next generation.
With the newly elected Congress and the current administration that task becomes more difficult. In the last three years short-sighted politicians have tried to:
· Allow more arsenic in our water
· Drill in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge
· Make taxpayers, not polluters, pay to clean up toxic waste in Superfund Sites
· Eliminate public input by circumventing the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
· Weaken the Clean Air Act.
Your letters and phone calls can convince elected officials that the vast majority of their constituents want a clean environment, to keep our families safe and healthy, and to protect our natural heritage--our forests, mountains and rivers.
