The origin is murky, but watermelon has been used as slang for "green on the outside, red on the inside" implying ecological concern as being inherently socialist / communist.

I just saw the image when searching for solarpunk images, thought the hastags were kinda cute. Watermelon has also been more recently used as a symbol for Palestine.
