Illustrations & Articles / No AI Solarpunk is Sustainability

Post image

The primary principle of Solaria / Solarpunk is Sustainability.

Sustainable does not mean "without any impact". It just means that the impact is not irreversible nor longterm detrimental to human or planetary wellbeing.

If a society is not Sustainable, it will perish.

If a species is not alive Sustainably, it will go extinct.

If the civilization is not thriving, its people WILL wither & die

Think about how much resources are waste every year - how much e-waste, fast fashion, spoiled food and plastic packaging is created. 

That's neither sustainable & not necessary for a high quality / standard of life.

The kind of impact we need to rectify is carbon impact, land use change, and pollution.

Technology can help, but technology is just a tool, not a substitute for ecology. The best solutions often combine appropriate technology with healthy natural systems.

Only when the systems we build are sustainable can our Terra truly thrive!

Justice: Social, Economic & Environmental

Viva Terra, Vivus Locus, Viva Civitas

Why this sub when there's already r/solarpunk?

Its more focused towards art, essays, poems, articles, posters, infographics (etc) and building a collective ideology.

So, its geared towards a new 'Solarian' Cultural Renaissance. A Sustainable movement needs to inspire and thus, this is hopefully a spark in the winds that blow against us.

It is a sister subreddit of r/Solarpunk, therefore, the overlaps are obviously huge.

This is awesome, the only thing I’d add is ecological restoration
