Is this whole "Tiny House/Van" movement genuinely Solarpunk? Or just another thing people are doing to cope under capitalism? (www.youtube.com)

Multiunit housing is actually a lot more efficient, cheaper to build and reduces sprawl. Building multi family housing with passive heating and cooling is actually comparable to traditional multi family housing costs.

In a better world that would be how we solve the housing crisis. Move more people together (better for mass transit, utilities, and services).

Then you can keep a smaller (greener) camper van for weekending or holidays to escape.
