In this episode we explore a relatively new subgenre of science fiction called Solarpunk, which aims to imagine better, more ecologically harmonious, futures on earth. In many ways Solarpunk is a reaction to both the real-world climate crisis and to the many apocalyptic visions of collapse filling our screens. Andrew Sage from the YouTube channel @Andrewism joins host Jonathan McIntosh and friend of the show Carl Williams for this conversation.

Completely tangential, but Invidious is a great, self-hosted alternative front-end to YouTube. So for example, instead of the YouTube link:

https://youtube.com/watch?v=HhNLkKw7ClM&feature=youtu.be

Just copy the "watch?v=..." to an Invidious instance. Two of my favourite public instances as examples:

This lets you watch/share YouTube videos with zero ads, zero tracking and fast speeds :) The only drawback is you can't comment/like, but it's a fairly small one IMHO. Have a good one!
