I'd love to think so, but I'm struggling to imagine what could initiate that sort of cultural change in the rural communities responsible for food production since the referendum has shown that the sorts of attitudes needed for a solarpunk society is missing from a lot of those areas. I'm sure climate change will soon make sustainability a priority for rural areas but that alone won't change most of the other values

Trying to take a bit of a refresh with community building, I'm an organiser in a large (for me) solarpunk discord which I think has a lot of potential for praxis and movement building but I think it could do with a bit more direction and hopefully I can encourage some of the cool projects that are emerging there. I'm hoping to kickstart a local solarpunk community but it's in the early stages, I've got some typical projects in mind like seed bombing that are as much as anything a way to get the group together, but I'm hoping I can bring my learnings from that community back to a wider audience because it would be awesome to see communities like that springing up across the world
