Greta Thunberg

A climate activist who needs no introduction, 18-year-old Great Thunberg became internationally renowned when her ‘school strike for climate’ protests caught the public’s attention. The Swedish teen has since spoken at the 2019 UN Climate Action Summit, was named Time’s youngest Person of the Year in the same year, and has twice been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. Follow her on Instagram (if you’re not already) for regular updates on her fight for climate justice.

Earthrise

Founded by filmmakers Alice Aedy, and Jack and Finn Harries, Earthrise cuts past the confusing environmentalism jargon to offer its strong 133k following clear-cut information about the climate crisis. The feed touches on a range of environmental issues, from the problem with palm oil to climate change’s role in the Syrian war, also offering advice as to how we can all take individual action.

Chicks for Climate

Chicks for Climate is invested in two principal social movements: feminism and environmentalism. Posts range from the latest climate news to heartening illustrations which inspire us to do better, raising awareness about the likes of fast fashion, ocean plastic and the lack of female representation in issues of climate change policy.
