While not directly EA, I think fiction isalso great to promote some ideas from the Progress Movement, namely humanism, agency, and the idea that “problems are hard, but solvable”.
I also feel that the idea that “actually, humans are good, and humanity is worth protecting” needs some promotion. We are not just some greedy, aggressive, nature-destroying species that the earth would probably be better off without!
