If you want to know what the best possible future could look like — and how we can make it happen — talk to someone involved in the solarpunk movement.
“If cyberpunk was ‘here is this future that we see coming and we don’t like it’, and steampunk is ‘here’s yesterday’s future that we wish we had,’ then might be ‘here’s a future that we can want and we might actually be able to get,’” Adam Flynn, an early member of the movement, explained in 2015.
This community is focused on not only imagining a future where we’ve overcome the problems inspiring today’s dystopian sci-fi (climate change, income inequality, descrimination, etc.), but also making that future a reality.
