Please tell us which areas of Transition interest you. For example: growing more food/urban agriculture, relocalizing our economy/local currency, Permaculture, transit, energy efficient buildings, the arts, urban homesteading, preserving seed diversity, placemaking, potlucks, outreach, organizing events, community-building, having fun while saving the world, or...
Food/urban agriculture, urban homesteading, beekeeping, zero waste, seed diversity, potlucks, carbon footprint, carbon budgeting, having fun while saving the world!
There's a saying that "Transition is not a spectator sport". It's true! Village Vancouver runs on people power, and engaging in activities and projects together helps us accomplish more. Which groups, networks, neighbourhood villages, or projects do you think you might be interested in getting involved with? And what knowledge, skills, resources or other assets can you bring to the mix? (Don't be bashful!)
Guerrilla gardening and organic urban agriculture (some experience), beekeeping (keen interest, no experience), communication and public engagement (professional experience, zero waste (we're getting close to this at home), urban homesteading (some experience canning and drying, though mostly learning).
What would you like to see improved in Vancouver or in your community regarding sustainability or resiliency? Do you have an idea for a new Transition project or activity?
I'd like to see a stronger sense of community, and familiarity among neighbours. I'd like to see a rotating cookhouse or potluck-style event on a regular basis. More time spent on community gardens (especially boulevard gardens) growing food.
