Positive Futurism

Stories of Renewal and Hope from a Solarpunk Future

Not dystopia — renewal.

Solarpunk is the newest branch of speculative fiction—an optimistic vision of the future where renewal, resilience, and human connection take center stage. Too much science fiction has fallen into dystopian clichés.

This anthology of stories distinguished by international recognition follows characters and communities finding their way forward:

• A girl with a rare disorder discovers life beyond screens.
• A professor chasing fusion energy receives visions he can’t explain.
• A coming-of-age tale of friendship across time.
• In an antediluvian world, two teens from different branches of humanity witness their civilization’s rebirth.

These stories dare us to imagine a future that isn’t written in fear.
Hope is a technology too.
