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."

#ForensicFengShui xD Hahahaha 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
My forensic spider senses tell me that the current form of #PostCapitalism we’re we living under isn’t sustainable at all… and forces us to dehumanize ourselves and alienate ourselves to the point where people would do literally anything… to earn a buck…
“This ain’t no #GigEconomy no more… this is literally a #SickEconomy

Fascism, genocide, ecological collapse - symptoms of a system designed to fail.
We keep fighting crises, not the cause.

The latest blog in our #CollectingRealUtopias series is embracing winter and darkness with a celebration of rest and #slowness.
Speaking to our addiction to #productivity, to #usefulness, about how this feeds #capitalism, colonial violence, environmental destruction and personal burnouts, Malaika Cunningham argues that rest and slowness might actually be the most important act of resistance we can enact. → https://cusp.ac.uk/themes/a/blog-collecting-real-utopias-no9/
