Transition Initiatives

A Transition Initiative is a community working together to look Peak Oil and Climate Change squarely in the eye and address this BIG question:

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

Oil production is at a peak but demand is growing. We need to make the transition to a life with less oil and diminished availability of transport and transported food. We can prepare or we can pretend it isn’t happening.

What will You do?

There are many groups of people in Tasmania who are working in this direction. While they do not all follow the Transition Towns model directly, they are all strong and active in making their community, and our state, resilient in the face of modern global challenges.

For those who wish to follow the Transition Towns model, a good place to start is here: The 12 steps to Transition.

Transition Towns grows from a variety of people with a variety of interests.
