Seattle Transitions

Thank you Margo Adair!! I'm about to start (speed)reading The Transition Handbook, and attending the Training May 1st and 2nd. I'm so excited to apply myself to this project:
Big enough for my intentions,
Realistic enough to be broken down bite-size,
Author-modeled, and so: inviting...
And! explicitly guaranteeless - and thus, a worthy challenge!

The book offers a full-on case study of the first Transition Town - a town that, in 2006, decided it would be fun to challenge themselves with a living social experiment, sprouting from the question: "How would we choose to live in an age without oil?" Taking one action at a time, doing the inner and the outer work, they now live in resilient local communities that hold a shared vision.
