How are you currently involved in the Transition movement?
Did a TT training in Cambridge, Mass.
I started a Transition initiative in Brunswick, Maine in February 2009.
In what ways do you identify with the Transition movement? Why are you interested?
I think peak oil, climate change, and economic uncertainty combined are the most important issues of our time. Addressing them together and at a community level, as Transition does, is the best solution I've come across so far.
How can you help the growth/acceptance/vitality of the Transition movement? What can YOU teach us? What can your GROUP teach us?
I'm still trying to work that out.

Welcome Amory! Great to see you here on Transition U.S. "... I think that addressing the twin problems of Peak Oil and Climate Change is the most important issue of our time. Everything else is a distant second..." -- There are quite a few people around the country who agree! Help us keep these issues in front of us all the time.
Come and see the new US Transition Map we rolled out this past weekend. As this page develops, it will become a map of U.S. and World Transition resources. All 50 states are now active. Many state sites are brand new! Go to MEANE and sign in. Invite others. Enter some of your local events. Start Discussions. Make Transition! Have fun!
