Italian SF author Clelia Farris’s novel Veg-humans is out in English (translated by yours truly):

On an island in the Mediterranean sea, Astarte, an agricultural cooperative of young farmers, is facing the consequences of drought. Despite the World Climate Organization helping populations to move north to the Arctic lands – the only arable lands – the partners of Astarte decide to hire a group of climatologists who promise rain. Yet the solution could be an innovative sunscreen, invented by Gazania, with which to subvert the tendency to Exodus and favor Permanence. Perhaps the remedy is in the “lymphatic” life of the plants that humans should imitate to become … veg-humans.

With Veg-humans, Clelia Farris, a leading author of Italian science fiction, embraces the solarpunk genre through an original vision, made of native innovation, radical sustainability, and collective knowledge.
