Can Solarpunk Save the World?

The choice, then, is clear: solarpunk, or barbarism.

by Stacey Balkan, November 15, 2022

Excerpt: "Offering an imperfect but clear-eyed hope, rather than so many apocalyptic nightmares, is a key goal of solarpunk fiction. While many critics argue that radical change will only come about following the total collapse of Earth systems—in other words, the apocalypse imagined by popular climate fiction and much recent zombie fare—it has become increasingly evident that such alarmism possesses no political utility.

"Furthermore, in a discussion about climate and energy justice, we must acknowledge that, for many #Indigenous communities, the 'apocalypse' happened long ago: during the long 16th-century, when an expanding plantation system expedited the removal and enslavement of millions of #BIPOC persons in order to accommodate the #hyperconsumption of imperial centers like London.

"Apocalypse, as a geohistorical event or literary trope, is thus not central to solarpunk. That is, solarpunk doesn’t require an environmental apocalypse, because most solarpunk practitioners understand the material legacies of #SettlerColonialism as on ongoing apocalypse.

"Consequently, solarpunk worlds are not necessarily postapocalyptic (nor set in the future), but they are #postextractivist. Responding to the ethos of #extractive #capitalism — whereby the colonized exist as 'fuel … for the sake of someone else’s good life' — solarpunk imaginaries demand a thorough dismantling of fossil-fueled modernity and the material infrastructures (and attendant cultural expressions) that occasioned our comprehensive dependence on prehistoric carbon. Quite logically then, solarpunk also rejects the techno-utopian project of saving industrial modernity via increasingly hubristic geoengineering schemes."

You are warmly invited into a #cinematic journey with Mauri: The Vital Essence in All Beings.

#Mauri is a powerful #documentary #film that invites us into the living world of #Māori #healing. Guided by #elders and lineage holders, the film weaves land, language, and ceremony into a story of #intergenerational care and #ancestral remembering. Filmed in Aotearoa, Mauri honors the sacred ways that continue even in the wake of #colonization and offers a profound glimpse into the resilience of #cultural memory and connection.

Join us for Mauri #GlobalFilmPremiere + 5-Day LIVE #OnlineEvent with #MāoriElders - October 14–18 →
https://theeternalsong.org/mauri/

Mauri: The Vital Essence in All Beings is the latest offering in our Wisdom of the Ancestors 12-film series, a living body of work shaped by #Indigenous knowledge, deep listening, and ancestral continuity.

The film invites us into stories that reach, beyond explanation, into embodied teachings, and generational healing work. As part of this gathering, you’ll be welcomed into daily live sessions and receive a rare workshop with Atarangi Muru, a world-renowned Māori healer whose practice has supported communities across the globe.

These gatherings bring you into direct connection with the voices and presences featured in Mauri:

Atarangi Muru, a respected healer whose life’s work carries #RongoāMāori into communities across #Aotearoa and the world

Mark Kopua, tā moko master and guardian of ancient story traditions

Donna Kerridge, trauma therapist and educator working with nervous system intelligence and land-based healing

Tina Ngata, international advocate for Indigenous, environmental, and human rights

Tāngaroa Ngaropo-Tāwio, Māori scholar, spiritual practitioner, and cultural leader dedicated to reviving ancestral knowledge

Tohe Ashby, Rongoā Māori Healer recognized for developing treatment for kauri tree dieback disease using traditional knowledge and whalebone

Erin Matariki Carr, lawyer and currently a project lead at RIVER, where she focuses on the constitutional transformation movement in Aotearoa

Stan Conrad, one of the foremost captains of Māori ocean voyaging, a leader in the wisdom and practices of Māori navigation and vessels

Each session opens a portal into ancestral intelligence — revealing relational systems of care, healing, and spiritual grounding that respond to our entangled modern crises.

Je suis frustré de pas pouvoir étoffer ma présentation. je le fais là. #introduction
Je suis d'origine #marocain et j'ai grandit à #Toulouse.

J'aimerais beaucoup découvrir une communauté #decoloniale et #antiraciste ici. Et pas que des blanc•he, j'ai un peu l'impression que je vois que des profils de personnes blanches.

J'aimerais aussi qu'on oublie pas de visibiliser davantage avec des boosts les personnes #trans , #handi , #bipoc ...déjà marginalisé•es par la société.

Roots of #fetishization is traced to #colonizers treating #BIPOC as curiosities. #Black bodies were #eroticized by #Europeans & when they invaded different #African countries, fascination & fetishization of #AfricanWomen was frequent.

Fetishization of East /Southeast #AsianWomen is known as #YellowFever. Since 18th & 19th century, #imperialism & #orientalism grew. #WesternPowers became intrigued with the East & #Americans became obsessed with #Chinoiserie

'#Black individuals are continuing to face #disparities within the #healthcare system, regardless of how universal our healthcare coverage may be 

I believe the #Canadian healthcare system was not designed in a way that allows for #patients to be treated #equally . Numerous times, it has been discussed that #PeopleOfColour are not receiving adequate care compared to their European counterparts.'

White people can't see through someone else's lens. They can only grasp how they feel about it. They can't just action on the testimony of #BIPOC people. They have to decide if it is worthy of being listened to or actioned upon according to their feelings.
