I think #solarpunk writing, like a lot of sci-fi, isn't made special by the technologies it believes in, but by the people it believes in. That is, by an ideology of hope, a fond glance toward the future.
In other words, I don't think #solarpunk writing should focus only on how we're going to survive the future, but WHY we should.
Also, #solarpunk should examine not only physical, material technologies, but sustainable cultural and emotional technologies
All this to say, I should be considered #solarpunk even tho I suck at writing sci-fi stories.
@MordecaiPinhas I think that the core of #solarpunk is not in the technology at all. It's ethics and aestetics. Why and how, not in the literal sense often but on the social level.
@MordecaiPinhas how would the Talmud approve of #solarpunk ?
@gattogateaux This is a good question. The Talmud certainly jives with a hopeful vision of the future. They're messianists, after all.
