Anyone interested in or engaging with #solarpunk or #climate movements in #literature, tech or other should check out this year's @SolarpunkConference (https://www.solarpunkconference.com)!
It's hosted online on June 29th and tickets are available until June 22nd through Eventbrite.
I also suggest you take a look at last year's conference journal (https://hcommons.org/deposits/item/hc:62961/), as it's a treasure trove of information and hope for a more solarpunk future!

The Financial Times made a game about getting to net zero by 2050: https://ig.ft.com/climate-game/
