ANNUAL AWARDS BANQUET

May 5, 2012 in Sacramentora

Keynote Speaker: Phil Isenberg ~ Chair of the Delta Stewardship Council

              Please join us in honoring the achievements of outstanding environmental activists at this gala event. Always a lot of fun, this is an opportunity to see old friends, meet new ones and spend time with folks who are helping protect the earth. And it’s also an opportunity to take home wonderful items from our now famous silent auction and raffle. Proceeds from this event help us keep our office open in Sacramento, so that we can provide optimal support for our local Sierra Club groups!

              Phil Isenberg, current Chair of the Delta Stewardship Council, will be our keynote speaker.  Previously Chair of the Delta Vision Blue Ribbon Task Force, Mr. Isenberg is not known for avoiding difficult issues or shying away from controversy. He'll be sharing with us his ideas on how we can meet California's water supply challenges.

Keynote Speaker

Phil Isenberg

"California may be one state, but our history of water wars suggests that we see ourselves as warring principalities -- perhaps like the nation states of the Balkans or the Middle East -- with historic regional, economic and political animosities driving the debate ...We are running up against the practical limitations of supply, and have little way to meet all the demands -- unless we change the way we behave."

Visit historical Virginia: Help our efforts in the State Capitol

California’s 13 Sierra Club chapters speak with one voice in the State Capitol--as the clear conscience of the state's environmental movement. Our volunteers, staff lobbyists, organizers, policy experts, and consultants have influenced every notable, groundbreaking state-level environmental policy adopted in California in the last 25 years.

To help support our Sacramento program, the Sierra Club California has joined with the Angeles Chapter to offer a fundraising trip to Historical Virginia. If you’re a history buff who likes to amble through America’s past, please come along on this September trip.
