The Sierra Club has lost 60% of its members in the past six years. Instead of staying in its environmental lane, it decided, of course, to embrace mission creep and make issues like Palestine into ‘environmental issues’.
The also created their own language guide.
It issued an “equity language guide,” which warned employees to be cautious about using the words “vibrant” and “hardworking,” because they reinforced racist tropes. “Lame duck session” was out, because “lame” was offensive. Even “Americans” should be avoided, the guide said, because it excluded non-U. S. citizens.
After the murder of George Floyd in 2020, the group called for defunding the police and providing reparations for slavery.

Sierra Club’s equity language guide: “It’s never acceptable to use the word ‘lame,’ which is considered to be a slur.” https://t.co/n3u67m3iiN pic.twitter.com/ZzCmiIXiM8
With all of that, they forgot to keep their eyes on the prize. Which, of course, was the environment.
One Sierra Club volunteer told the newspaper that she remembered a conversation with a staff member who she said was more interested in DEI than saving wolves:
Ms. Malone thought that someone else in the chapter had filed a complaint. She recalled an incident when a club staff member had scolded her for saying that the club should lobby Colorado’s legislature for more protections for wolves.
“One of the staff said, ‘That’s fine, Delia. But what do wolves have to do with equity, justice and inclusion?’” Ms. Malone said.
There’s a whole bunch of irony here.
