It was such an honour, and so inspiring, to hear from @SenatorBoyer One of the most wonderful parts of @PracticalUtopia was getting the chance to learn from the special guests and meet so many different people.

I recently had the opportunity to be part of an amazing experiment led by @MargaretAtwood. Practical Utopias brought together creative thinkers from all over the globe & put them to work with one mission - design a future that is just for all. nytimes.com/2022/12/06/sty… @discolearn

Still can’t quite believe I was part of this - and @MargaretAtwood created a wonderful practical utopia alongside our ones. Amazing how we all had so many shared thoughts and similarities. And I am still thinking of our plans each day. @PracticalUtopia @discolearn

"The group we gathered [we]re ages all the way from 18 to 80. I learned from our fellows and participants because they actually know more than me." The illustrious @MargaretAtwood on her @PracticalUtopia course, hosted on Disco: nytimes.com/2022/12/06/sty…

Enormous gratitude to @MargaretAtwood @discolearn & @PracticalUtopia for bringing me into the fold as one of the fellows on scholarship, as well as to my friend @cuvaj_se who covered the remaining expenses. I am held by many hands. I hope my own can hold others likewise.

Thank you @MargaretAtwood! I am so proud to have provided the artwork for this and the @PracticalUtopia project. Careful… once you visit SYMBIOCENE you may never want to leave.

All 8 Practical Utopias presented by their teams were amazing! Real life, gorgeous, carbon-lowering, and affordable solutions that people could do now (and are doing). Anthology of them on the way!

after a long and difficult day, going to the second @PracticalUtopia showcase was so uplifting (but also sad as it was our last session). So much I want to share about it but for now I shall just treasure the memory of @MargaretAtwood helping us to feel rejuvenated mid-meeting
