Profile Information

In which Vancouver neighbourhood or other community do you live?
Downtown
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...
I am interested in sustainable initiatives, with a particular interest in efficient buildings and homes.

I lead the "Sustainable Vancouver Business Networking" Meetup group that gets together twice a month at the Light House Sustainable Building Centre.
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?
More focus on public transportation and less focus on auto-focused roadwork. Better planned bike routes would be nice -- not simply concrete barricades on our streets.
I agree to read and abide by the Site Guidelines under the About tab on the navigation bar, remaining respectful in all communications on this web site.

Hi Brian

Welcome. Perhaps you would like to join our local economy network group. We're just getting started but already have close connections with the Dunbar Business Association, and will be focused on developing close connections with our business communities to move towards resillience, strengthening our local businesses.
Our next meetup is scheduled for Monday, Oct 11 at 6 pm. I know its Thanksgiving but it seemed that most group members are available then.

Look forward to meeting.
