| Conservation
Committees
The Angeles Chapter’s elected environmental
leadership meets in a monthly forum as the Chapter or the Orange
County Conservation Committees. Made up of volunteer activists,
they make decisions about what action the Sierra Club will take
to protect the environment in the Chapter’s territory of Los Angeles
and Orange Counties. All Sierra Club meetings are open to Sierra
Club members.
The Conservation Committees are
the umbrella committees overseeing many issue subcommittees, task
forces, and campaigns. Visit our environmental
campaigns page to
see what we’re working on.
