Transition Town training answers the question: How can our community respond to the challenges, and opportunities, of Peak Oil and Climate Change?

 

Four Key Assumptions of the Transition Initiative Process:

 

• That life with dramatically lower energy consumption is inevitable, and that it’s better to plan for it than be taken by surprise.
• That our communities presently lack the resilience to enable them to weather the severe energy shocks that will accompany peak oil.
• That we have to act collectively, and we have to act now.
• That by unleashing the collective genius of those around us to creatively and proactively design our energy future, we can build ways of living that are more connected, more enriching and that recognize the biological limits of our planet.

 

Learn from experienced trainers Michael Brownlee and Lynette Marie Hanthorn, certified Transition Trainers and co-founders of the first official Transition Initiative in North America.
