Can Passive House design and construction help achieve a Solarpunk future where people can thrive? In this final video of a four-part series, Zack Semke introduces the Solarpunk aesthetic and movement, how it relates to the "Outrage and Optimism" of climate campaigner Christina Figueres, and the many ways that Passive House IS Solarpunk. Join in this exploration of the climate crisis, the clean energy transition, and how buildings will play a starring role in halting climate change.
