Community for solarpunk readers/book lovers? (slrpnk.net)

Is there currently a Solarpunk community for booklovers/Solarpunk reading recommendations, etc? I came to think of it when I was going to ask around if anyone was still using book swapping sites like BookMooch and Paperback Swap, but it would be a nice place for other book discussions, too. I did use search on the communities page, and it didn't turn up exactly what I was looking for, but there's always the possibility that I was using the wrong search terms.

Yeah, that's basically it. It's fiction that features a future in which people are adapting to climate change and focuses on sustainable living and technologies. A few years back you wouldn't have found anything searching for solarpunk fiction, but it seems to have been gaining popularity lately. I've always enjoyed speculative fiction, and I agree with you that we need more protopians in our collective imagination.
