What is solarpunk and why is it gaining momentum? Can storytelling and citizen science shape a more hopeful, sustainable future?
In this episode of Shifting Views with Willis, I’m joined by Alan Raw — former BBC journalist, creative practitioner, eco-activist, and author of the solarpunk novel Salt & Seeds. We explore how creative thinking, community action, and alternative knowledge networks like Grokkist are helping us reimagine life in a world facing climate breakdown.
This is a conversation about optimism, systems change, and the quiet power of imagining something better.
