I don’t think Solarpunk has normalised the idea that we could just routinely talk to animals.
Hi, I’m currently at an eco-village, and had a discussion about washing dishes per hand vs using a dishwasher. I was not completely sure, but have read somewhere, that a dishwasher is more efficient (in terms of energy and water usage). I just fact-checked that and indeed, when not being super careful by handwashing (no...
So I have noticed from reading through posts and my own research that there isn’t much information on how mental health and psychology would be taken care of and implemented. I could very well be wrong and would appreciate anyone’s pointing me to an initial resource in order to understand more. And if it hasn’t been...

I’d imagined the transfer of usable items would be handled...

I have seen many concrete planters that crack and result in water leaks for lower levels. Standing water in concrete structures is a huge no no. I do not have a lot of experience in engineering on...

I plan to speak to my city council about creating a tool library, where citizens use their existing library card to checkout tools. To make the idea a bit more robust, I’m also planning to require citizens deposit something as collateral when checking out a tool....
Studies toward a sustainable future conducted by international organizations uniformly agree about having to change some of our present consumer behaviors. Regarding food, suggestions include eating locally farmed, less industrialized and renewable food to promote health and circularity, and limiting waste. Jellyfish are...
I was wondering if y’all have some YouTube or podcast recommendations for solarpunk creators.
