"TRANSITION FRIDAY"!
Film: "IN TRANSITION 1.0 - FROM OIL DEPENDENCE TO LOCAL RESISTENCE" (49 min, Emma Goude, 2009), and a few short films
…WITH LEO BRODIE FROM TRANSITION SEATTLE, AND CATHY TUTTLE FROM SUSTAINABLE WALLINGFORD. 
"TRANSITION FRIDAYS": COME JOIN US FOR AN EVENING FOCUSED ON POSITIVE SOLUTIONS AT A VERY LOCAL LEVEL - EVERY 2ND FRIDAY!   
IN TRANSITION is the first detailed film about the Transition movement filmed by those that know it best, those who are making it happen on the ground. The Transition movement is about communities around the world responding to peak oil and climate change with creativity, imagination and humor, and setting about rebuilding their local economies and communities.  It is positive, solutions focused, viral and fun.
We live at a fascinating point in history. The convergence of challenges, most particularly global warming and peak oil, have brought us to a point where we are profoundly challenged to act. The scale of the challenge is huge, and the obstacles are plenty.  But something very powerful is stirring and is taking root the world over.  There is an emerging energy to succeed, a sense of quickening, and an exhilaration in talking and listening to each other once again, to visioning what we want and then rolling up our sleeves and starting to co-create it. People are choosing life and are manifesting that in their lives and their communities.
Facilitated discussion on the Transition Initiative forllowing the film.
(Event is FREE and open to the public! ...but Donations are kindly accepted
