The Transition Handbook
Creating local sustainable communities beyond oil dependency
Rob
Hopkins 2008
Around
the world, societies are facing the prospect of a future
with dwindling oil reserves, an unstable climate and
unpredictable food production. What are the ways we might
move away from our dependency on oil, reduce greenhouse gas
emissions and still enjoy a good quality of life?
This
book provides accounts of how individuals have responded
with their local communities to the twin threats of Peak Oil
and Climate Change. It includes detailed accounts of
Transition initiatives in the UK and profiles of Australian
and New Zealand initiatives currently underway. This
inspiring and practical guide shows the necessary steps to
establishing a transition town in your local area. By
addressing the head, heart and hands this guide addresses
the issues of why small is inevitable, why having a positive
vision is crucial and how to move from the vision to action
in your local area. 278pp
