A Solarpunk is a human that wants to save the planet with technology. I did not know I was one… until a friend of mine in the Galactic Hitchhiker’s Facebook Group asked us all the other day.

I had no idea what a solarpunk was until I was asked if it defined me. I said yes. Here are the definitions that come up first on Google.

Solarpunk is an art movement that envisions how the future might look if humanity succeeded in solving major contemporary challenges with an emphasis on sustainability problems such as climate change and pollution. — -WIkipedia

Solarpunk is a Revolt of Hope Against Despair — Connor Owens

And here it is… Jay Springett wrote the reference guide that I am still reading through very happily.

If you prefer to watch a video, these guys are a couple of my friends that are prepping for the entire planet.

How does this apply to me?

I am writing a fiction book and an upcoming page will explain more. This is amazing to me because it is finished and I just learned about solarpunk. My character will authentically not know that it exists. This is very cool for a writer.

We are a little crazy!

I am publishing my book one page at a time. I don’t want to ruin anything. It is a little bit of an excursion through irony and time. It is called Ages Of Irony. This story might explain things in another very confusing way.
