Using solarpunk to imagine positive futures rooted in climate justice, anti-racism, anti-colonialism, and sustainability.

We ignite creativity, blending eco-friendly design and technology with social justice as a tactic to stop or slow the climate crisis. We build community by communicating these hopeful visions through storytelling.

We are based at the University of Waterloo, which is on the land of the Haudenosaunee, Anishinaabe, and Chonnonton peoples.
