Hey folks, appologies if this has been asked before (although surprisingly I couldn’t find a similar post) - what solarpunk book, film, game, tv, etc recommendations does every have?
I’m only just discovering the genre, looking for some good starting points!
Annalee Newitz The Terraformers novel.
I havent’t read Sunvault yet but you should check it out.
The Wikipedia page has now a lot of interesting references : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solarpunk
Also check the philosophical/political books cited in the manifesto.
I really like Murder in the a tool library by Ae Marling and The Lost Cause by Cory Doctorow.
nausicaä and the valley of the wind. environmentalism shows up a lot in miyazaki’s work, but nausicaä is the most direct about it and aligns with solarpunk in its messaging and themes.
Idk if it’s solarpunk per se but I dearly loved “The Overstory” by Richard Powers fair warning it’s not a happy piece of fiction
Oh, one more to consider: Reckoning Press is more climate fiction than explicitly solarpunk, but it was one of the things that got me to give solarpunk a chance.
