Join Pasadena Post Carbon at a pot luck and screening of an interview of Rob Hopkins on Transition Towns. After the film we will discuss the Transition Towns movement. This event is for anyone interested in the Transition Town movement, or interested in being part of envisioning a sustainable future for our community and working on projects to make it happen.
Bring some food to share.
Kids are welcome.
Space is limited, RSVP required.
"The Transition Network is a new international organisation that aims to inspire, encourage, network, support and train communities, including existing groups and initiatives, in exploring the transition from oil dependency to relocalised economies.
Transition Initiatives make no claim to have all the answers, but by building on the wisdom of the past and accessing the pool of ingenuity, skills and determination in our communities, we believe the solutions will emerge.
Now is the time for us to take stock and to start re-creating our future in ways that are not based on cheap, plentiful and polluting oil but on localised food, sustainable energy sources, resilient local economies and an enlivened sense of community well-being.
The need for change is urgent and these profound changes can’t happen overnight. We still have sufficient time - if we start now.
By thinking and acting together, the transition to a way of living that consumes substantially less carbon energy yet is a happier, more fulfilling and abundant place will become much more achievable."
