The wide pedestrian street with an obsolete sidewalk curb and the elevated highway retrofitted into a rail line suggest a recent move away from motor vehicles towards sustainable modes of transit.

Rooftop gardens, rooftop solar, and wind turbines in the direction of sunset indicate emphasis on local production and mass acceptance of green energy.

The large communal dinner with live music and people running around doing their own shit is a disavowal of western individualism and formality, instead focusing on people's emotional and physical needs, comforts, and efficiencies without involvement of the market.

It's understated, sure, but this is as solarpunk as they come.

This is gorgeous!! The skyline reminds me of my hometown so it feels nostalgic in a way despite being something I haven't seen before
