The #SolarpunkCity is #Accessible
by Commando Jugendstil and Tales from the EV Studio
"How do people move around the solarpunk city?
With public transportation which has been enormously expanded. Private transportation is mostly limited to adapted vehicles for special #MobilityNeeds, and vehicles are available through #SharedOwnership schemes.
It’s concert season in the solarpunk city and Webby has decided to go to the auditorium on her Isetta EV, specially adapted for people with her mobility needs. It can be boarded through a ramp, and the steering, which features an extra wheel to control brakes and accelerator, can be moved out of the way to allow Webby to board and disembark seamlessly. Strictly speaking, the car is not just hers… It is part of a dedicated #CarSharing scheme, managed through a municipalized distributed ownership programme. Next to her, Diego, a #SightImpaired musician, follows the orange path painted on the floor towards the Auditorium: the sensors in his next-gen walking stick can tell him where to turn and how far it is."Source:

Have you read our first advice column? We've launched a series called "Dear Solarpunk Presents..." where we respond to questions or links or comments (etc) you've sent us about solarpunk and related things.
Not sure if something is solarpunk? Want the opinions of either @arielkroon or @xtinadlr?
We have a LOT of opinions, and we're very happy to be wrong but we can only learn if other people join our conversation.
So head over to our blog and let us know what you think!
(Disclaimer: we're not the arbiters of what is solarpunk or not; that would be very silly. This series hopes to provide a place for discussion where the solarpunk community can learn from each other!)

Dear Solarpunk Presents...
We're launching an advice column! (Well, sort of...) Our first question is from a listener who wanted our opinion about the "California Forever" project to build a sustainable city in Solano County, California. Is it solarpunk?
Click through to see what California-raised @xtinadlr has to say about it, and join the conversation in the comments to share your opinion.
(Ariel also took a look at the project, but this is more in Christina's wheelhouse!)
