Brazil: Nos últimos meses, tenho me debruçado sobre o subgênero da ficção científica solarpunk. Aqui no Brasil, já em 2013, tivemos a publicação de uma das primeiras coletâneas de contos do gênero, sob o título “Solarpunk – Histórias ecológicas e fantásticas em um mundo sustentável”. Isso resume bastante o que o subgênero vem a propor: histórias de um futuro mais ecológico, sustentável e positivo… In recent months, I’ve been dwelling on the sub-genre of science fiction solarpunk. Here in Brazil, already in 2013, we had the publication of one of the first short story collections of the genre, under the title “Solarpunk – Ecological and fantastic stories in a sustainable world”. This pretty much sums up what the sub-genre comes to propose: stories of a more ecological, sustainable and positive future… Muito além das smart cities verdejantes, solarpunk também pode ser sombrio – 29/04/2021 – UOL TAB

Germany: In dieser Woche hatten wir zwei, wie ich finde, besondere Artikel für euch. @Michael hat recherchiert, wie realistisch eine der zentralen Vorstellungen aus dem Science-Fiction-Genre des Solarpunks schon heute ist – nämlich, dass wir fast immer und überall sauberen Strom erzeugen. Dabei ist er auf viele spannende Konzepte gestoßen, an denen Wissenschaftler, Designerinnen oder Start-ups arbeiten: von gläsernen Solarpaneelen, über Kleidung, die Sonnenstrom erzeugt, bis zu Solarrucksäcken. Außerdem hat er Produkte aufgespürt, die ganz bewusst reparierbar gestaltet wurden. Auch das gehört zu unserer Solarpunk-Zukunft. This week we had two, I think, special articles for you. @Michael researched how realistic one of the central ideas from the science fiction genre of solarpunk already is today – namely, that we generate clean electricity almost always and everywhere. In the process, he came across many exciting concepts that scientists, designers, or startups are working on: from glass solar panels, to clothing that generates solar power, to solar backpacks. He has also tracked down products that have been deliberately designed to be repairable. That, too, is part of our solar punk future. Das 1E9_Update vom 23.11.2022 // Design für Solarpunks, ein Riesenroboter und eine Geschenkidee! – Community / Newsletter – 1E9

Indonesia: A white furry beast is floating on a thin chunk of ice. In all its confusion the mammal stares blankly into the water and wonders where all the seal have gone. We are already familiar with this image. Your next-door environmental activist may have posted it, or you stumbled upon the animal on a meme site a few years back. But who could have cared for a creature stranded thousands of kilometers away? Could solar punk be our hope against climate apocalypse? – Academia – The Jakarta Post
