The federal government is looking to expand electric transmission lines across the country to develop renewable energy and bring electricity to areas currently disconnected from the grid. See how this will impact Tribes and how Tribal members can be involved:
Sovereign Energy was honored to convene some of New Mexico’s Native farmers for a focus group this month as part of the New Mexico Tribal Agrivoltaics Education Initiative, supported by the @honnoldfound.

As Indigenous Peoples, we are far too familiar with resisting corruption, colonialism, and extractivism. We will never stop fighting for balance, equity, peace, justice, and the respect of our ways of life! Today we mourn. Tomorrow we fight!

Take good care of yourselves today, Relatives. ❤️ From traditional practices to spending time in nature, gathering with loved ones, or learning from our Elders, self-care honors the healing power of culture & community. 💪🏽✨
Education, access to dedicated funding, and dismantling restrictive federal policies are essential to unlocking the full potential of tribal green energy initiatives.
The funds will support a fleet of electric vehicles, a gray water management system & a 2-acre solar array that will reduce energy costs by 80%. Underneath the panels, native gardens will support prairie restoration, showcasing a sustainable path that respects both land & culture

The visit demonstrated how traditional knowledge, paired with renewable energy solutions, can strengthen community health, food security, and environmental resilience. Thank you to the Tesuque Pueblo Farm & the @honnoldfound for supporting our work🌱

Renting but eager to go electric? You can tell your landlord how upgrading to electric appliances can save them money and increase their property values.

We are working to advance the Tribal and energy sovereignty of Southwest Pueblos. We cannot do this work without you.
It's why #EarthGivesDay exists. This day and the 25 days leading up to it, allow environmental nonprofits to be lifted to the forefront.
