First Solarpunk World-Building Project Polls Launched

Welcome to the very first of our weekly poll sets for the collective Solarpunk World-Building Project. We’re so excited that you’ve chosen to participate! This week’s polls are all geography oriented questions to help us establish some basic context for our world building.

We already know that our world is the planet Earth, and the planet Earth already has known geographical features. That means we aren’t starting from complete scratch. But we are building a new society, and that society exists somewhere on the planet.

We won’t be setting our society in any particular nation-state, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t still a number of geographical questions for us to consider so we can establish some basic context for our new solarpunk society.

Some of the questions overlap with others to various degrees. At this stage, try not to get bogged down by those details and whether or not anything seems contradictory. It will work out once the votes are tallied!

This week’s poll questions include:

Question 1: Primary Geographic Setting
Where should our community thrive? Choose the primary geographic setting for our solarpunk community.

Question 2: Proximity to Water
How close should we be to major water bodies?

Question 3: Climate Preference
What climate best suits and defines our community?

Question 4: Altitude and Terrain
At what altitude do we build our community? Select the altitude and terrain type for our community.
