Green Philly will be helping you understand eco-issues with the local 2023 elections

As a part of Every Voice, Every Vote,” Green Philly will focus on social media and events around sustainability issues.

“Every Voice, Every Vote” is a new coalition created to inform and engage Philadelphians, ensuring their voices and interests are integral in the upcoming citywide campaign. The Lenfest Institute for Journalism is awarding $1.5 million to 52 news media and community organization partners.

Twenty-five media partners are receiving funding, including us. Green Philly is focusing on a social media campaign and events on election and sustainability topics.

Other media organizations like WURD Radio, WHYY, Billy Penn, and The Philadelphia Citizen will provide issues-oriented news coverage, candidate interviews, debates, and town hall meetings.

Stay tuned as we announce events and follow along with us on Instagram.

What do you want candidates to focus on? How can the next mayor make Philadelphia a more sustainable city? Send us an email: contact@greenphillyblog.com for your ideas and opinions.
