22,5 x 15 cm. Zustand: Gut. 135 - 267 Seiten (pages) Original Broschur, angestaubt, Rücken minimal schadhaft. Klammerheftung rostig. Original paperback, dusty, spine minimally damaged. Staple rusty. Der Sierra Club ist die älteste und größte Naturschutzorganisation der Vereinigten Staaten. Das Motto der Organisation ist Explore, enjoy and protect the planet (dt. Erkunde, genieße und schütze den Planeten). Der Sierra Club wurde am 28. Mai 1892 in San Francisco, Kalifornien, von dem Naturschützer John Muir sowie einigen Professoren der University of California, Berkeley und der Stanford University gegründet. John Muir war außerdem bis 1914 sein erster Präsident, der Hauptsitz ist San Francisco. Nach eigenen Angaben hat der Club ca. 2,4 Millionen Mitglieder[1] in den USA. Der Sierra Club of Canada (10.000 Mitglieder) ist ihm angeschlossen. In den ersten Jahrzehnten seines Bestehens engagierte sich der Club vorrangig für die Schaffung von Nationalparks in den USA, so z. B. für den Glacier-Nationalpark und den Mount Rainier National Park. Ein weiteres wichtiges Thema jener Zeit war (und ist) der Schutz der Redwoods. Zu den Erfolgen gehört unter anderem in den 1950er Jahren die Verhinderung des Baus des Echo Park Dams im Dinosaur National Monument in Utah: Dies geschah in einer Zeit, in der Umweltthemen in den Medien noch so gut wie keine Rolle spielten und Großprojekte, wie z. B. Staudämme, weithin unkritisch begrüßt wurden. Neben der Förderung von Nationalparks und Naturschutzgebieten setzt der Club sich seit den sechziger Jahren auch für die Einführung von Umweltstandards in der Gesetzgebung ein, so beim United States Clean Air Act, beim Toxic Substances Control Act und beim Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977. Von 1934 bis 1971 war der Fotograf Ansel Adams Mitglied des Direktoriums. Nach ihm ist auch ein Preis für Fotografie, der seit 1971 jährlich vom Sierra Club vergeben wird sowie die Ansel Adams Wilderness (Ansel-Adams-Wildnis) benannt.
