Carbon Neutral Strike Update 1: Days 1-10
Hey Solarpunk Presents listeners, my name is Aleya Jobson. While your regular listening material is on hiatus, I thought I would pop in and provide some material of my own that have accumulated since April 22, 2025. Starting Earth Day 2025 I commenced or recommenced, rather, my Carbon Neutral Strike and Challenge, where at least one choice per day avoids needless oil, gas or plastic. During the process I began to share musings, emotions, opinions, and findings around the central tenet of what is essentially a 'clean' lifestyle. One that is truly aware of its wastes and excesses. This process, I believe, is eye opening and very interesting to observe, even if you don't do it yourself. It was made all the more fun and engaging because I was acquiring points called 'Dews' on my platform Fastfrwrd.info for sharing my findings and keeping a green lifestyle. Dews can buy user-generated goods and unlock games, while still surfing green on Fastfrwrd, which is a sustainable oasis on the internet with green energy credits powering it. As you listen, I hope you feel, as I do, that the process is a worthwhile method for figuring out where you stand in the Anthropocene, and what really matters in life. Ariel and Christina have been so gracious to platform me, and I am forever grateful.
Music featured in these episodes are from me under the name Aleya Jobson. The songs can be found on most music streaming services, bandcamp and Fastfrwrd.info
So much more to say, but as you listen, I'm sure you'll find out. Thanks so much.
Update lengths vary based on what I have to say on a given day. I will be releasing 2025's clips in chunks of 10 and then when we're all caught up, I aim to release regularly as much as possible as long as I am not repeating myself too much, or feeling unwell, or need to reflect. Are you ready? Then let's go.
Episode includes: Mangoes from the neighbourhood, climate sins, 666 sightings, plastic brick plans that (spoilers) still haven't come true, and attempts at carbon neutrality through offsets, emissions avoidance and waste prevention.
