🌿 Happy #SolarPunkSunday ☀️ 🌱

To me, Solarpunk isn't just an aesthetic of "green cities." It is a protest. It is the punk of digital sovereignty and the right to repair.

Fun Fact: The movement was born out of a desire to move past the doom scrolling of Cyberpunk.

Tech should serve the community, not the corporation.

Supporting open source, keeping old hardware out of landfills, and building local resilience.

Adam Flynn wrote in 2014: "There’s an oppositional quality to solarpunk, but it’s an opposition that begins with infrastructure as a form of resistance."

Solarpunk is a future with dirt under our fingernails and open-source in our pockets.

Solarpunk: Notes toward a manifesto – Project Hieroglyph

@terminaltilt YES. Transitional solarpunk will not be cottage core plus solar panels or the status quo plus solar panels, but a bloody struggle because those with power will refuse to give up the power carbon gives them. It will very punk in the original sense of the word. Solarpunk is one of 10 pillars i discuss on my youtube channel solarpunkusa, with sustainable community at its core

I am familiar with your work. I subscribed. I have learned quite a bit about the movement from channels like yours and Andrewism.
