A full SolarPunk utopia ! The climate change is there by we are adapting to it. People are now living in community that still have a relatively advanced level of technology but they are focused on being substainable. However for most of the daily life the technology used is mostly low tech.
The concept of nature died with the ancient world. Because now everything is nature, the conceptual separation between nature and civilisation collapsed. Now cities, communities and fields or forest are interlaced, rather than exploiting their environnement societies are nurturing it. The food is local, there is a few electric trucks transportation is mostly done by bike and cargo bike. Everything is repairable, most of the energy is produced locally with renewables energy.
Overall we might have lost some material comfort but gained on the quality of life.
I know it's an utopia, I can't be sure that it's gonna happen but the one thing I can be sure it's that if we don't try it's never gonna happen. I believe that or current thermo-industrial civilization started to collapse but I believe that we can still have some very happy lives after that.
People riot against simple 15 minute cities already. I'm not that optimisticfor that level of forwards planning.
