Instead of embracing retrofuturism, solarpunk looks completely to the future. Not an alternative future, but a possible future.
Solarpunk wants to counter the scenarios of a dying earth, an insuperable gap between rich and poor, and a society controlled by corporations.
Solarpunk envisions a built environment creatively adapted for solar gain, amongst other things, using different technologies.
We’ve learned to use science wisely, for the betterment of our life conditions as part of our planet.
Wow, you’re right, no H+ rhetoric, phrases, or similarities whatsoever! What ever *could* I have been thinking!
The pathos, methods, and terminology of the contemporary Anarcho-transhumanism movement is all over the manifesto you linked; you are proving my point for me! Furthermore, it doesn’t appear to contain any specific references to innovation being unnecessary, as you claimed was part of the core of this movement which you also claimed was intentionally vague. Claiming on one hand that a movement is vague to attract a broad coalition and also very confidently claiming (with as far as I can tell no actual evidence) that it definitely has very few members from any particular other movement while not contradictory strikes me as extremely odd.
Well, obviously you are very certain of your opinion as well, so there seems little point in arguing further. Just don’t be surprised when other people will tell you the same next time you incorrectly claim solarpunk and transhumanism is the same 🙄
Those examples are really not the best as they are basically corporate attempts to jump on the Solarpunk bandwagon and use it for green-washing.
As for the other things… you seem to be really not have looked deeply at all into Solarpunk if you haven’t even read the Solarpunk Manifesto.
Maybe the articles that we mirrored here will give you a better idea: https://wiki.f-hub.org/books/slrpnknet/chapter/learn-more-about-solarpunk
