We know that the Man of Steel gains his powers from the sun, fights for justice and has sought to eliminate things like nuclear weapons but is he solarpunk?
Probably not, but Gabriel Rizzo has written a very personal, thought-provoking post we really enjoyed about how things Superman has said have helped him escape cynicism and despair to become more solarpunk. You can read the full piece here.
RR Stockton has set herself the challenge of making a piece of solarpunk art every day this month. Check out the roundups of what she made for week one and week two and the rest on her notes.
Our friends at solarpunk dc have written a great post “Who has the right to the future?” which really chimes with our manifesto point ‘Yes to Tech, No to Technocracy’. They also list great-looking events happening this DC Climate Week.

Part of building a deliciously sustainable future is sustaining ourselves, so I’m planning to keep screen-time to a minimum over the next fortnight. That means I’m unlikely to be picking up messages or comments during that time. I’ll aim to read and respond on the other side :)
The main way this newsletter grows is people like you sharing it. Let’s bring a deliciously sustainable future a little closer by passing this onto anyone you think might enjoy a dose of inspiration.
See you in the sunshine,
