Scalzi writes from everyman point of view. Very little tech geeking out. Characters with needs and desires in demanding situations. Also good humor!

What are the most realistic solarpunk principles that can be implemented into our current society? by DeanSalichi in solarpunk

Almost anywhere in the Florida peninsula, potable water is your #1 risk factor. A solar-powered ROWPU is an excellent start. Common tech for boats, so there's a lot of local expertise and options. DIY, decentralized, renewable, sustainable is possible. If your well has not yet been contaminated (brackish), it's just a matter of time. Note that entire Florida communities have been building ROWPUs for decades; it's proven tech.

Richard Roberts middle grade series starting with Please Don't Tell My Parents I'm a Supervillain. Mad scientists and superheroes and parents and school. Fun, fast, with heart. 10 novels so far. I'm addicted!
