Be the change.
Any pronouns, really.
The truth is, some days I don't give it my best. I don't even give it my all. I can only manage to give it my some, and it's not even that great.
But I'm still here, and I'm still trying. So that's gotta count for something, right?

There is always hope, it just doesn't always make it into the history books.
There's lessons here for survivors of current disasters.
"Solarpunk doesn't require an apocalypse. It's a world in which humans haven't destroyed ourselves and our environment, where we've pulled back just in time to stop the slow destruction of our planet. We've learned to use science wisely for the betterment of ourselves and our planet."
Want to know more about hopeful climate fiction? Ever think of trying your hand at writing it? My Bright Green Futures podcast, ten episodes in with an 11th episode (All About #solarpunk) about to drop, is turning into a primer on how to imagine a better world.
Check it out for a weekly boost, to keep going, stay in the fight, and keep imagining the possibilities.

We're releasing today another bonus clip from behind the Patreon paywall. This originally was produced by Christina as a bonus clip to follow the early release of S5E5; supporters on Patreon at the Companion tier and higher gain access to bonus content that is either excerpted from episodes or prompted by their content every other week. Here is the original description:
"I didn't have any extra clips from the interview with the organizers of The Solarpunk Conference. Instead, here's me (Christina) reading my contribution to The Solarpunk Conference Journal that was published after last year's conference.
Enjoy!
PS- you can catch videos of many of the presentations from the conference on The Solarpunk Conference's YouTube channel (including the presentation/panel that @arielkroon was a part of)."
