The space to discuss Solarpunk itself and Solarpunk related stuff that doesn't fit elsewhere.

Half-Earth perhaps, but I didn't see much actual solarpunk. The only society we see seems to prefer automated and sterile mass agriculture as well as consumer capitalism (the protagonist is a product). I suppose the attempt to rebel against this given purpose could count as punk, but is it solarpunk? The story has very little to say about society.
Visually it was beautiful, but the pacing felt a bit too fast for my adult brain.
Yes, stressful pacing and a disappointingly thin plot, unfortunately.
The three novels are quite good as well, targeted at kids, you can probably read them as fast as watching a movie.
You overestimate the speed at which I read
Quite probably true. I ended up reading each one twice, one per day, once for me and once because my wife thinks it's hot when I read to her. :)
I liked the implied history from the underwater landmarks and human structures.
I like this, will have to check out the novels for my kids too!
I didn't liked it. that's use the solarpunk aesthetic to try tell you even with clean energy the society still will slave things a be amoral with the wild and destroy ecosystems only for profit. I hate that. It's like when they say the anarchist are all cryptobros.
