The 20s and 30s Section is a group of 20 and 30 somethings interested in meeting new friends in the greater Los Angeles area while enjoying the outdoors through hiking, camping, backpacking, beach-combing, playing volleyball and other fun experiences.  We like to have fun, but we also want to stay safe. For that reason, each hike is reviewed by our organization before posting to make sure there are at least two qualified volunteer leaders trained in CPR and basic First Aid are involved.

But it's not just the rhythm -- I've rarely found this quality of thinking when working out inside. Outdoor recreation is being in relationship with the natural world, and a great deal of inspiration available through observing the biology around us. John Muir knew this well.

A group of pesticides called neonicotinoids have been causing destruction and killing bees for years, and we need to act now before it’s too late.

Sierra Club staff and volunteers work together to analyze and determine Club positions on hundreds of bills at the legislature every year. From among those on which we take a position, a number rise to the top as priority bills that deserve attention and that we encourage our members to bring to the attention of their legislators.
