a giant constellation of light moves across the landscape of bali.

french artist vincent leroy uses dozens of fresnel lenses to slowly shift, refract, and scatter sunlight across the landscape, creating an ever changing play of light and shadow.

Forests are friends. Here’s some of the things trees did for you today:

🫁 𝐂𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐚𝐢𝐫. Forests remove pollutants from the air in your lungs. In the US alone, trees remove more than 20 million tonnes of air pollution a year, preventing hundreds of deaths and hundreds of thousands of asthma attacks.

🚰 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫. 75% of the world's accessible freshwater comes from forested watersheds.

🍽️ 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝. Pollinators enable more than $577 billion of the world's crop output every year, and many of them live in forests.

🌳 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐫𝐭. Forests hold topsoil in place. Globally more than 24 billion tonnes of topsoil are lost every year, and degraded land already costs the world trillions a year in economic output.

🌧️ 𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧. Forests pump water into the sky. A single tree in the Amazon moves hundreds of liters of water into the air each day, which falls on farms that feed the continent.

😅 𝐊𝐞𝐩𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐨𝐨𝐥. Healthy forest canopies cool the air beneath it by several degrees. Increasing tree cover to 30% in European cities would prevent about a third of heat-related deaths.

🌊 𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞. Mangroves alone prevent roughly $65 billion in flood damage a year by keeping storm surges at bay.

🌎 𝐒𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐭𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐛𝐨𝐧. Forest ecosystems stabilize the climate by regulating carbon dioxide. Forests absorb more than 7.6 billion tonnes of CO2 a year, around 1.5x what the US emits.

🦜 𝐆𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐚 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞. 80% of land-based biodiversity lives in forests. Deforestation is driving extinction risk for around a million species.

🧬 𝐋𝐞𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐥. Forest branches shaped the way your hands grip. Navigating trees and the ripeness of forest foods kept your eyes forward and seeing full color. Primates spent 60 million years in trees. Your body was designed for forests.

Consider hugging a tree today. They’ve been hugging you back.

Hey Solarpunk Community! 🌻

It took a little longer than we originally hoped, but today we finally launched Solarpunk Update 1.3.0!

This is our biggest update since release and it brings a whole bunch of new features, content, improvements and fixes to the game.

Costa Rica is the first tropical country in the world to successfully reverse deforestation, nearly doubling its forest cover from a historic low of 21–26% in the 1980s to nearly 60% today.

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

China is replacing plastic with fast-growing bamboo, creating eco-friendly bags and tableware that can biodegrade in just 4–6 months

[LeoDaVinciWave @LeoDaVinciWave]

Japan is transforming car parks into floating gardens.

#Promptshare Epic solarpunk optimistic sci-fi: terraced green city with stained-glass solar canopies, vertical gardens on white arcology spires, cyclists on sky bridges, butterflies and clean water channels. Warm sunlight, emerald and amber glass, community repair aesthetic, photoreal utopian ecology, no text logos, hopeful future without corporate dystopia.

Paris has removed the paving from its city hall square and transformed it into an urban forest.

It’s 2035, and AI has gone well. What could a normal day in your life look like?

Most popular AI futures are dystopias. Almost no one takes the time to seriously and vividly imagine a future that's actually worth building.

So we made a short film following one day in the life of an AI auditor in 2035, in a world radically transformed by AI for the better.

Digital twins model how people’s unique physiologies respond to illness. Sensors stop pandemics before they start. AI helps governments actually listen to citizens by synthesizing vast amounts of data into actionable policy suggestions, but humans stay in control and make the final call.

If this resonates, please share to spread the word about positive AI futures!

It's been:

5 years since the idea.
4 years since the prototype.
4 years since the announcement.
1,5 year since the demo.

If you want to make a good game expect it take a looooot of time. Gladly, good games does not expire like milk.

Solarpunk: Um gênero de ficção popularizado no reddit apresentou um futuro positivo onde humanidade e natureza convivem juntos. Vou trazer aqui alguns exemplos de como isso já tem se tornado realidade.

[matheus carvalho @matheuscarvalhx]

A rede Sarah de hospitais é uma das coisas mais "o Brasil que deu certo" que existe. A unidade do Lago Norte em Brasília é o puro solarpunk à brasileira, super tecnológico e ao mesmo tempo super leve e natural. Imagina trabalhar todo dia num lugar que parece o Nosso Lar.

Por volta de 2013 a cidade de Chengdu tem adicionado trepadeiras em seus viadutos para conter ilhas de calor e o difícil trabalho de tornar essa infraestrutura mais agradável.

After 4 years, the moment has finally arrived...
SOLARPUNK IS OUT NOW! ☀️✈️

It’s been an incredible journey.
A huge thank you to everyone who has joined us and supported us along the way - it means the world to us. 🥹❤️

Solarpunk is NOW available for PC and consoles! 🎮

The future of human civilization will not be shaped by the battle between left and right, rather it will be determined by our choice between open and closed systems.

Imagine a world where hard work is rewarded, truth and justice prevail in courtrooms, the government doesn’t steal your labor by debasing the currency, bureaucrats aren’t captured by corporations, and our taxes go toward critical infrastructure instead of wars overseas.
