On a long enough time line, every country. Just need to add a little freedom.

Of course, but which do you think would be the spark that ignites the rest?

The reinvigoration of indeginous practices.

Solarpunk will, and should, look different everywhere; the sooner we understand the why of the individual old ways, the sooner we can live better in the individual ecosystems.

I feel like Cuba would be ripe for solarpunk ideals to really take hold and thrive, but I'm not sure they have widespread access to those ideas.

As someone else said, the Netherlands and other Nordic countries are also in a good position to adopt a solarpunk lifestyle.

Northern Syria might be good too, if the Anarchist's in the Rojava conflict are able to hold out against Turkey and ISIS to become a recognized nation state.

@ProdigalFrog @countrypunk In the early 2000s, Cuba replaced all the old refrigerators with newer more efficient ones.
They could have recycled the heat exchangers into solar hot water heaters but the thought never occurred to them.

I asked.

Surprising, I'd always read they re-used and repurposed stuff like crazy over there since they have limited resources to get more.

Netherlands and other Nordic countries

The what now?

[-] ProdigalFrog@slrpnk.net 2 points 11 months ago

Huh, I always thought of the Netherlands as part of the nordic countries but I was mistaken!

America invading, either through military or through culture.

[-] who8mydamnoreos@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Don’t you mean legal rights? Freedom is a worthless subjective term used to manipulate the peasants.

[-] Blamemeta@lemm.ee -5 points 11 months ago

I meant as in America invading, either with the military or with culture.
