It is a curious thing that science fiction and science-that-comes-to-pass influence each other.

This is why I like the idea of solarpunk. And yet, cyberpunk brings conflict/struggle which makes it interesting.

Solarpunk so far seems like a boring utopian dream. While I'd rather that in my future, it won't sell or interest people.

I think it's a telling condemnation of our society that a utopian dream for everyone is considered "boring", and impossible to motivate people around.
