This caught my eye and my imagination.
Now it has my full attention.
There are now over 40 Transition Towns in the UK, with more joining as the idea takes off. With little proactivity at government level, communities are taking matters into their own hands and acting locally. If your town is not a Transition Town, this upbeat guide offers you the tools for starting the process. It is a process which is, as Richard Heinberg writes in his Foreword, “more like a party than a protest march”.

Tue, October 21, 2008 - 3:34 PMIt's not daydreaming if you're actually *doing something*
Besides, do we really have a choice? Not acting isn't really an option at this point. It's a matter of survival. -

Wed, October 22, 2008 - 9:16 PMIt's not like people have never farmed before.
Only a few generations have passed, or less...a daydream?
The closer we get to personal poverty, the richer that lifestyle will seem.
