"With their new anthology, Almanac for the Anthropocene, Wagner and Wieland continue to break new ground in the solarpunk genre. And like Sunvault, this new collection of work is sure to be a core component of solarpunk's standard reading curriculum." -- Justine Norton-Kertson, Solarpunk Magazine "I'm thankful for all that Wagner and Wieland have done to gather and champion those working in the solarpunk movement, and I believe this book will help bring new solarpunks into the fold, ready to join them in further thought and action." Matt Bell, author of Appleseed "Wagner and Wieland demonstrate the breadth of the solarpunk movement through the collection's ferocious expression of many possible futures, giving us tools and strategies for bringing those about, but reminding us that the conversation is not, and perhaps not ever, over." Sean Guynes, coeditor of Uneven Futures: Strategies for Community Survival from Speculative Fiction
