Solarpunk is an art movement that envisions how the future might look if humanity succeeded in solving major contemporary challenges with an emphasis on sustainability problems such as climate change and pollution.[1] Solarpunk describes a multitude of media such as literature, fine arts, architecture, fashion, music, tattoos, and video games in a similar manner to adjacent movements such as steampunk and cyberpunk as well as more established art movements like Baroque and Art Nouveau and Impressionism.[2] The iconography of solarpunk focuses on renewable energies such as solar and wind power. Popular icons in the genre include van life vans, solar panels, waterfalls, indigenous peoples,[3] parrots, psychedelic mushrooms, wind turbines, vertical gardens, and fruits.

Although solarpunk is highly concerned with technology,[4] it also embraces low-tech ways of living sustainably such as gardening, positive psychology, and DIY culture. Online communities that discuss and share solarpunk messaging are also often interested in the prepper lifestyle.
