It sounds like they’re describing Solarpunk basically!

Solarpunk is when affordable housing is near a garden and some stores, apparently.

Are the water and power for this community provided by a sustainable source that does not deplete the surrounding environment?

Is the community itself integrated into nature as much as possible, as opposed to disrupting it?

Is it capable of providing locally sourced food for its inhabitants? Does it support eco-friendly forms of personal transportation and utilize eco-friendly public transit as much as possible? Is this a utopian/post-dystopian society with advanced technology and a post-capitalist, communal social and economic paradigm?

....Does it even involve solar power?

Who knows!

15 minute city? No, no, that's solarpunk.
