Is your town a Transition Town?

I was very pleased to find out at Climate Change Festival in Wellington this weekend that there is an active Transition Towns movement in New Zealand. Transition Towns, http://www.transitiontowns.org.nz/, are towns where a group has taken on the responsibility to plan the transition to a lower-energy and lower-emissions future. It's a concept that's gained a lot of traction in the UK and Ireland, and now it's coming to a town or suburb near you.

If you're interested in taking action in your community, then check out whether there's a Transition Towns group active near you on the list at

It's rather North Island-oriented at the moment, but they're working on that!
