                          What exactly is a Transition Town?

                          A Transition Initiative (which could be a town, village, university or island etc) is a community-led response to the pressures of climate change, fossil fuel depletion and increasingly, economic contraction. There are thousands of initiatives around the world starting their journey to answer this crucial question:

                          "for all those aspects of life that this community needs in order to sustain itself and thrive, how do we significantly rebuild resilience (to mitigate the effects

                          From the transition website:

                          What exactly is a Transition Town?

                          A Transition Initiative (which could be a town, village, university or island etc) is a community-led response to the pressures of climate change, fossil fuel depletion and increasingly, economic contraction. There are thousands of initiatives around the world starting their journey to answer this crucial question:

                          "for all those aspects of life that this community needs in order to sustain itself and thrive, how do we significantly rebuild resilience (to mitigate the effects of Peak Oil and economic contraction) and drastically reduce carbon emissions (to mitigate the effects of Climate Change)?"

                          The community self-organises to respond in three phases.

                          First, it self-organises in groups in all the key areas such as food, transport, energy, housing, education, textiles etc, and creates practical projects in response to that big question (such as community supported agriculture, car clubs, local currencies, neighbourhood carbon reduction clubs, urban orchards, reskilling classes). Most Transition Initiatives are in this phase.

                          Second, when the initiative is sufficiently competent with these concepts and practices, it embarks on an EDAP (Energy Descent Action Plan) process. This is a community-visioned and community-designed 15-20 year plan that creates a coordinated range of projects in all these key areas, with the aim of bringing the community to a sufficiently resilient and low CO2-emitting state. A very small handful of Transition Initiatives have embarked on this phase.

                          Third, they begin implementing the EDAP, sharing successes and failures with other Transition Initiatives that are travelling the same path. As of March 2010, no initiative has embarked on this phase.

                          There's a more detailed explanation here: transitionnetwork.org/community/support/what-transition-initiative. And just so you don't think that we have all the answers...

                          Cheerful disclaimer!

                          Just in case you were under the impression that Transition is a process defined by people who have all the answers, you need to be aware of a key fact.

                          We truly don't know if this will work. Transition is a social experiment on a massive scale.

                          What we are convinced of is this:

                          * if we wait for the governments, it'll be too little, too late
                          * if we act as individuals, it'll be too little
                          * but if we act as communities, it might just be enough, just in time.
