Earlier this year, the Bay Alive Campaign launched local advocacy teams to monitor sea level rise plans in Loma Prieta Chapter communities and help ensure that natural and nature-based solutions, environmental justice, and long-term climate resilience remain central to the decisions ahead. Bay Alive teams are currently focusing on the following areas:
🌊
South San Mateo County (Belmont, San Carlos, Redwood City, Menlo Park, East Palo Alto),
Santa Clara County (all shoreline cities),
City of San Mateo,
Brisbane, and
Millbrae and Burlingame.

In collaboration with Sierra Club, SF Bay Chapter and Sierra Club Redwood Chapter for the Bay Alive Campaign.

The Fall 2026 issue of Sierra, the magazine of the Sierra Club, takes readers to the front lines of Bay Area sea level rise planning. “United Front” explores the complex challenge of preparing communities for rising waters and the unprecedented regional coordination now underway around San Francisco Bay.
💖
New regional sea level rise planning guidelines call on shoreline communities to prioritize nature-based solutions, address groundwater rise and contamination threats, plan for changing conditions through adaptive resilience pathways, and ensure frontline communities have a meaningful voice in decisions about their future.
🌊
“United Front” shines a spotlight on the community of East Palo Alto, featuring the nonprofit, community-based organization Nuestra Casa, and Sierra Club’s Bay Alive Campaign. As communities around the Bay begin developing their local sea level rise plans, Bay Alive is working to build informed grassroots participation and advocate for solutions that protect both communities and the Bay for the long term.
📣
The Bay Alive Campaign is funded through a bequest received by the Loma Prieta Chapter from the Rohloff Estate, and is organized by the Sierra Club Loma Prieta, San Francisco Bay, and Redwood Chapters.

Last week we mobilized with residents from Gilroy Community Action in order to support a moratorium on new data center facilities. The Council listened and unanimously approved a temporary moratorium. Now, as Gilroy develops new data center standards, we will stay actively engaged, advocating for strong environmental protections and for a permanent prohibition on massive AI data centers that threaten the air we breathe, the water we drink, the electricity we use, and the open space we cherish.

"The Sierra Club Loma Prieta Chapter encourages Los Altos to reject aggressive, profit-driven sales pitches that prioritize private equity gains over public health and the environment. Pour in place rubber (PIP) is not the simple, foolproof solution it’s often claimed to be."
