Mission:

To explore, enjoy, and protect the wild places of the earth; To practice and promote the responsible use of the earth's ecosystems and resources; To educate and enlist humanity to protect and restore the quality of the natural and human environment; To use all lawful means to carry out these objectives.

Specific Issues:

In addition to sustainable agriculture and locally grown food, the West Alabama Sierra Group is working with local governments to implement the Cool Cities movement. This is a nationwide movement to reduce greenhouse gases and thus slow the progress of global warming. The city of Tuscaloosa signed the agreement in June of 2007 and it is our goal to include the Tuscaloosa County Commission and the city of Northport in this movement.
