âCan I ask you a question?â
âWhen you were sinking to the bottom of the sea, who do you imagine it was who dragged you onto that beach? Brace yourself, but Iâm the only person within a hundred miles of here who doesnât want to see you dead.â
A long time ago I was thinking about âSilver dragging Flint into lifeâ or âSilver reaching out for Flintâ and after several stages and re-draws somehow ended up with this. Please, do not repost elsewhere :)

If you hadnât have cut that forestay, thereâs an argument to be made that Vane would have set sail right away and probably killed us all. They know it, and itâs having an effect.

How much longer until the utopic Solarpunk future where Capitalism is dead and we all live in ecologically sustainable high-tech forest cities? Asking for a friend.
Until we make those ecologically sustainable high-tech forest cities ourselves. Itâs going to take a lot of us to do it though, so best to spread the word (and gather native tree seeds).
And, like, get started now. Then our âweirdo housesâ will be the only thing functioning when everything falls apart!
The only reason why we donât live in a solarpunk world right now is because no one has bothered to make it yet.Â
Weâll have to make it ourselves, and weâll have to help each other make it. Thatâs why it is solarpunk.Â
Some resources to consider creating or joining or doing:
Repair cafes - create or join your local repair cafe! Repair stuff, learn how to repair stuff, teach others how to repair stuff.
Map of Makerspaces - make some things! learn how to make some things! teach others how to make some things!
Community Garden Map (note that this is US-only, and not a complete list) - join a local community garden
Support your local farmers / local economy (US only link)
Support or create a local Food Not Bombs chapter
Support or create a local Food Not Lawns chapter
Grow food in 5 gallon buckets
Volunteer for Habitat for Humanity (as a bonus you can learn extremely practical skills)
Volunteer via 350.org to help the environment / the planet / the place we live and depend on
Excellent-and-still-growing wiki from redditâs awesome r/zerowaste community - great resource to learn how to live more lightly on the earth
Spread the word about solarpunk, especially to engineering students. Show them projects like Open Source Ecology - Global Village Construction Set and Bridges for ProsperityÂ
Learn how to Patch a Hole, Mend a Seam, and Fix a Hem
Learn how to repair a hole in the sole of a shoe
Learn some basics on passive solar design - clever use of the sun can create extremely energy efficient homes and buildings. You can use these principles to save on energy bills, even if youâre renting.
Free USDA Complete Guide to Home Canning, 2015 revision - cut down on personal food waste! Learn how to safely preserve food. Very useful if you suddenly harvest / purchase for crazy cheap in season / dumpster dive a ton of perishable food.
Donate to One Acre Fund, which provides training and capital to farmers (making them more productive and pulling them out of poverty) in various east African countries
Donate to Bridges to Prosperity, which provides technical expertise, money, and volunteers, to help local people build and maintain their own footbridges in extremely isolated rural areasÂ
joining r/solarpunk, and sharing links/ideas/art/music with the community. Also, upvoting stuff for greater visibility. Thereâs over 900 members!
Adding a few!
Replant scraps from your produce
Graft fruit-bearing branches onto ornamental trees in your area
Turn plastic waste into pretty much any plastic thing you need, in your garage, with machines built out of cheap and accessible parts
Make your own paper out of recycled paper or cardboard
Build a composter or a wormery
Harvest rainwater
Mod your toilet to flush gray water (used sink/shower water, or even that rainwater youâre harvesting)
Build a solar collector on the cheap
Build a wind turbine on the cheap
Build a hydroelectric water wheel on the cheap
Get internet access without going through cable companies using cheap, low-tech equipment
Make your own beer, cheese, soap, wine⌠really anything you can make rather than buy is a success!
And HELP YOUR NEIGHBORS! Donât just build/grow/mod/repair your own stuff, help them do it too! Share it! Depend on each other! Work together and grow closer with your community!
[ID: excerpt from âWanting All,â a poem by Alicia Suskin OstrikerÂ
âWhat more do I want then, why Do I prowl the basement, why Do I reach for your inside Self as you shut it Like a trunkful of treasures? Wait, I cry, as the lid slams on my fingers.â]
Have you heard the story? What were these villains after but money? What do they care for but money? For what would they risk their rascal carcasses but money?

Flintâs war could only have one result. A life of loss and misery and fruitless sacrifice. I had to stop it. And Iâm not sorry for it.
