How are you currently involved in the Transition movement?
Big Fan
In what ways do you identify with the Transition movement? Why are you interested?
I first blogged about Transition Towns in November of 2008- I think it is right to say Ive been "with" the spirit of it ever since-- doing whatever I could in life to keep the understanding of what it means in the forefront of my actions and talk.
How can you help the growth/acceptance/vitality of the Transition movement?
my learnings have always been about dialogue, collaboration, creativity, big question thinking and the like

just testing this text box on my page...

Hi Tom,

Welcome to what we all call, simply, "the ning". I have found it to be a great place to connect and share information and once in a while to get some support and motivation. The most energetic place here on the ning is the Forum with its outbursts of discussion. Please weigh in!

Katrien (Wayland)
