I listened to a podcast recently about solarpunk and one of the most important comments that stuck with me was about how important it is to have optimistic fiction and that solarpunk stuff is a way to think of a better future world. I hadn't thought about that but it struck a chord since I wouldn't describe the futuristic stories I read as terribly optimistic. A link in case you're interested. The comment was in the first 10 minutes or so. https://thefirethesetimes.com/2023/01/06/podcast-solarpunk-a...

This is awesome, thanks! Solar punk is definitely in the right direction.

We’re hopeful that more optimistic visions of the future will inspire entrepreneurs to bring some of the ideas to fruition.
