Hi, I’m working on a collection of resources to make writing solarpunk easier and I’m currently putting together a page about exurbs, basically how they came to be, why they’re unsustainable, how they might reshape in the future if supply chains break down.

Solarpunk has a lot of ‘fuck cars’ elements and I’ve picked up a lot of that over the years, but as I research this one, I’m realizing I don’t have specific examples as close to hand as I did for the other topics. I haven’t spent much time in communities dedicated just to these discussions and I’d like to make sure I don’t miss any community-favorite articles/essays on stuff like how cars reshaped rural places, the complexities of automobile manufacturing supply chains, and the car-size arms race.

If there’s anything you think should be included in that discussion I’d be very happy to add it!
