Hi Everyone, I just became aware of the peak oil / environment / transition movement about 10 days ago. Though I have been involved in natural foods since 1979 when I worked for a food coop in Northern Wisconsin. Just found that we have an organization here in Carmel Valley - Sustainable Carmel Valley. We are gathering information and starting to plan what we need for energy decent.

Decision-Making for Transition Groups: Part One
November 11, 2009 from 4:00 - 5:30PM (EST)
Comment by Iver Lofving on November 11, 2009 at 7:35am
I would like to start some kind of Transition initiative around here. I have a small maple sugaring operation and am a Peak Oil person for at least 10 years. I think the time to do something is now.
Comment by Robert Schultz on September 5, 2009 at 9:49am
I agree, David, we need to make our choices in our own communities to connect and form a resilient local economy. Sending a letter to Congress to support Climate Change legislation will only help to let decision makers at the National level see that these are issues that many concerned citizens find important. Acting to support those goals will help move the Transition forward, rather than create legislation to fight against the Transition.
Comment by David Eggleton on September 5, 2009 at 8:59am
"Transition will happen, with or without government legislation, but supporting Climate Change legislation will help make the Transition smoother."

I'd enjoy being able to share the belief that concludes that sentence, but I am not. Transition ultimately is about people taking back the power to connect and choose together from those who would separate them (or maintain separation) and choose for them. That's where resilience enters and thrives, not in a prescribed utopia. As I see it, the dividing and dominating interests are very present in all legislative processes and outcomes, especially at the national level. Transition involves making we a meaningful word and a sustainable reality in the 21st century. That's local because local doesn't require fossil fuels and/or nukes to function and persist.
Comment by Robert Schultz on September 4, 2009 at 5:40pm
Please take a look at the letter from Sustainable Energy Network regarding Climate Change legislation, posted in the discussions. This is something that supporters of the Transition Movement may be interested in signing. The letter to Congress supports; reduced CO2 emissions, energy efficiency, and renewable energy. It asks Congress NOT to support; fossil fuels, nuclear power, and environmental roll-backs.

Transition will happen, with or without government legislation, but supporting Climate Change legislation will help make the Transition smoother.

Nice to have you here.
Keep this up and we'll need to start a twelve-step group.
Comment by KateJohnston on August 27, 2009 at 4:07pm
Hi,
My name is Kate and I'm a Transition-a-holic.
Nice to be here.
Comment by Heather Valli on June 26, 2009 at 1:08pm
Hiya. I'm new here, but I suspect there are a number of people from my area involved in this movement. I'm looking forward to learning more.
