One of the reasons why a solarpunk way of thinking is so appealing to me is that it challenges me to think about what we could do to subvert a dystopian scenario and build something better. After all, climate change is going to cause tremendous upheaval, even if the world collectively stopped making things worse. It's a more humble way of thinking about a problem, because it isn't built on the idea that we can be masters of the world, but instead need to learn how to understand ourselves as intra-acting within ecosystems
