Let’s start with Transition Town Kingston in Surrey who ventured out on bikes and skateboards to celebrate a Zero Carbon day which included a fossil- fuel free time trial. Here is their report of the event, here’s a report from the local paper, and here’s a video about what they got up to:
I have had the great pleasure over the past few months to work with Susana Martinez and Emilio Mula to create a new short film about oral history and Transition. It emerged from the oral histories we did in preparing the Totnes EDAP, interviewing some of those people in more depth. The resultant film, premiered on Thursday night in Totnes, is one I very much hope you enjoy.
Let’s end the week with a short film. Here’s a great film about Transition Houston in the US… have a good weekend…
A Fishbowl conversation at the 2011 Transition Network conference, Liverpool.
The ingredients in the forthcoming ‘The Transition Companion’ are nearly done, but a few have spaces we need to fill, such as this one called ‘How are we doing?’ and I’d love to add your stories to it. It looks at the value of initiatives stopping to evaluate what they are doing, reflecting honestly before adjusting what they are doing and continuing. They might use Open Space, World Cafe, Appreciative Inquity, Fishbowl, or any range of other things. I’d love to hear your stories, in no more than 300 -350 words. about your Transition initiative’s experience of doing that. How many people came? What did you do? What did you learn from it? You could either post below or email me at rob (at) transitionculture.org. To get your thoughts flowing thus far, here is the main text for that ingredient. Thanks!
A couple of months ago I did a talk at the RESOLVE conference, entitled “Transition as Cookery”, and now, very kindly Stephen Hinton has taken the audio and the slides from the RESOLVE website and synched them together… hope you enjoy it.
