Solarpunk fiction is a form of climate fiction, but by focusing on the changes we could make, it can move us past climate anxiety, says author and editor Sarena Ulibarri. She introduces us to five favourites: ranging from near-future to far-future, they present a collection of thought experiments in the ways humanity might yet choose to live.

      I’m glad you liked it. I thought it was a great list as it shows the diversity of stories that are possible within Solarpunk. You can follow Sarena Ulibarri on Mastodon or other parts of the Fediverse. Although she didn’t mention Lemmy in the article she is aware of this community. @[email protected] is an active member on this instance, of course and Brightflame stated she is donating all royalties for The Working to climate justice organizations if that’s incentive to read it.

        I actually DNF’d A Half Built Garden recently but am excited to try some of the others! If Half Built gets really good after chapter 8 someone give me a shout.

        Currently reading Newitz’ The Terraformers which has some solar punk vibes
