The title's a little blunt, but the message is more "what is Solarpunk art good for", explaining how aesthetics can be co-opted, why art is important for the movement, but also some common criticisms of the aesthetic uses of solarpunk.

How does the megacorporate water and electricity wasting machine fit into solarpunk though?

Surely it's antithetical to the nature of solarpunk given that (in my mind at the very least) the point of solarpunk is that it imagines the possibility of living a sustainable life with technology that isn't destroying the planet.
