Hello Friends! In this episode, I talk about anger and hope and how to fight the dominant narrative that our actions are pointless.

NOTE: This year, I’m going to send out more newsletters as a way to share hopeful stories and other information between podcasts...make sure you subscribe to the newsletter in addition to the podcast! I’m also hoping to spruce up the website, but you can already find lists of hopeful climate fiction, the Bright Green Futures anthology, free solarpunk zines, and a list of the Top 10 Solarpunk Books Every Library Should Have.
