   @dznz @lightweight @bsmall2 Rob Hopkins was an initiator of the concept in England and has written several books. Check out his own website and podcast for some inspiration! It’s really a community-led thing rather than a top-down one. An example in Dunedin is The Valley Project - see www.northeastvalley.org

     @simplicitarian @lightweight @dznz Do you have a good link that explains the Transition Towns movement. I imagine the real solutions are decent town planning, compact cities.. Something like Murray Bookchin's approach to politics.. But it's hard to get motivated to do the necessary organizing and politics.

     @lightweight @dznz @bsmall2 Yes! And a key part of the Transition Towns movement is imagining a good sustainable future, and then building communities that start living in that way now.
