Hey GPE Girlies, ever wondered why it’s always our neighborhoods? 👀🤔 The air that feels heavier. The electric bill that keeps climbing. The block that floods every time it rains. The corner store with chips but no fresh food. That’s environmental injustice, and it’s personal to communities that look like ours. 💅🏽 You already see it. Now learn how to change it. Our advocacy and organizing training gives you the tools, the coaching and the peer support to make real change. The Girl + Environment Advocacy Institute: Environmental Justice Cohort is a five-month program for Black and Brown women, femmes and gender expansive folks in DC and Maryland. Together, we’ll build the organizing skills to turn what you see in your community into action. ✨ Learn to tell your story and build power with other people ✨ Shape a project rooted in your own community ✨ Coaching, a peer bestie, and a $500 stipend ✨ In partnership with National Geographic’s Slingshot Challenge December 2026 to April 2027. Mostly virtual, 1 to 3 hours a week. Priority deadline: Nov 13 Final deadline: Nov 22 Apply at the link in bio 💕

Black women are making HISTORY, and we love to see it! 👏🏾💗 But let’s talk about what it takes to get here. Because these wins don’t happen overnight. They’re built through YEARS of organizing, advocacy, community building, and investing in Black women’s leadership. And that’s exactly why the work we do at @girlplusenvironment matters. We can’t just celebrate Black women when they win elections. We have to invest in them BEFORE they ever make it to the ballot. That means funding the organizations building the next generation of advocates, organizers, and changemakers. Because when women have the resources to lead, EVERYBODY wins. 🧡 Let’s keep that same energy (and investment 👀) long after Election Day!

The girlies have been GREENLIT! 💚🌱 We’re excited to announce that the Girlies Green Fund recipients have officially been selected! 🎉 Through the Girlies Green Fund, we’re putting resources directly into the hands of changemakers who are turning their bold ideas into community-driven climate and environmental justice solutions. To everyone who applied, THANK YOU! We were inspired by your creativity, passion, and commitment to making a difference in your communities. And to our selected grantees, CONGRATULATIONS! We can’t wait to see your projects come to life. 💗 Check your inboxes! 📩 #GirliesGreenFund #GirlPlusEnvironment #ClimateJustice #EnvironmentalJustice #CommunityLedSolutions

There really is a room where Black and Brown femmes are leading the climate movement… and we want you in it. 💚 Chicago Climate Week reminded us that some of the best conversations happen when community comes together to learn from one another.

Hot girls deserve summers they can actually enjoy. ☀️ But for too many Black communities, extreme heat is a public health issue shaped by decades of environmental injustice. Our Executive Director + Founder, Diamond Spratling, explores what that means in her latest Black Enterprise op-ed. Comment "COMMUNITY" to read the full story.

During Chicago Climate Week, Girl Plus Environment was proud to co-host a screening of In My Backyard with The Nature Conservancy featuring opening remarks from our Executive Director and Founder Diamond Spratling. 💚 The documentary follows Tonyisha Harris and explores what community-centered climate leadership looks like in practice. It reminds us that the energy transition isn’t something happening to communities. It’s something communities are already shaping every day. When people can see themselves reflected in climate leadership, it becomes easier to imagine themselves as part of the solution. Thank you to everyone who joined us for an morning of storytelling, conversation, and community. We’re grateful to The Nature Conservancy for partnering with us to bring this film to Chicago Climate Week.

Extreme weather is changing our routines, our health, and our wallets. No one should have to choose between staying cool and paying their energy bill. Hot girls protect their communities. 💚 That starts with taking action. 💬 Comment "HOT GIRL" to sign the Extreme Weather Petition and help us fight for affordable clean energy, lower energy costs, and healthier communities.

Hot girls hate extreme weather. Summer was supposed to mean pool days, beach trips, rooftop dinners, and golden hour. But we’re checking the weather every five minutes to see if it’s safe to be outside. Choosing between running the AC and paying the electric bill. Wondering if another heat wave is on the way. We’re spending this summer unpacking why that’s happening and what we can do about it. Comment "HOTGIRL" to sign our petition today! 💗

Hot girls check the AQI before they leave the house. 😭 Not because it’s allergy season. Because wildfire smoke has drifted thousands of miles from Canada. Climate change isn’t just making summers hotter. It’s making wildfire seasons longer, more intense, and affecting communities far beyond where the fires are burning. The girls deserve: ✨ Clean air. ✨ Safe summers. ✨ A future where going outside doesn’t come with an air quality warning. Comment "HOT GIRL" to take action today. 💚

Communities cannot build resilience alone. Across Atlanta, organizations and residents are creating solutions to address extreme heat, rising energy costs, and environmental health challenges. But lasting progress requires resources, investments, and protections that match the scale of the challenge. On July 28, we’re bringing together community voices to highlight what’s at stake and what is possible when communities are supported. Because everyone deserves the opportunity to live, work, and thrive in a healthy environment. 💚 Comment "💋" to attend in person or virtually!

Hot Girl Summer is fun. Until it’s too hot to be outside. Join us on July 16 as we discuss how rising temperatures are becoming one of the most significant public health challenges facing Black communities, along with practical ways to stay safe, prepared, and resilient this summer.

Hot girls carry sunscreen. Hot girls share water. Hot girls check on their neighbors. Hot girls know where the nearest cooling center is. Hot girls sign petitions. Community care has always been climate action. Comment "HOTGIRL" to tak action with us today.

We didn’t come to play. We came to advocate. 200 people deep at the Capitol pushing for policies that actually protect our communities. Because environmental justice isn’t optional. It’s necessary. Proud of everyone who showed up, spoke up, and took up space. #EJDayAtTheCapitol #EnvironmentalJustice #GirlPlusEnvironment #PolicyForThePeople
