Greg Hamilton's Page
Profile Information
- In which Vancouver neighbourhood or other community do you live?
- North Vancouver
- 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, potlucks, outreach, organizing events, community-building, having fun while saving the world, or...
- As a long time member of both the Work Less Party and de-Growth Vancouver, I am interested in all of it. Mostly, moving toward a more community based society that works toward local sustainability to create a better overall economy for us all.
- 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!)
- Currently I am involved in creating a Community Garden in our townhouse complex, so urban gardening for sure. I have made a number of contacts through my work with the Work Less Party and continue to make great contacts all over the world with my current work, attempting to stop the Olympic movement. I am good at engaging and making initial contacts with people and groups of all kinds. I also have varied and extensive knowledge of computers.
- 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?
- Far less vehicles and far more cycling routes and walk ways all over the North Shore
- 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.
- Yes
- Don't feel like answering all the questions now? No worries, just tell us briefly why you're interested in joining at this time, and you can come back and update your profile later.
- Overall, I want a better world for my kids. I want them to know that there is a natural world to live in without worry of extinction in their lifetime. Early in my life it was nuclear annihilation that threatened the world. For a few decades now it is climate change and the overall degradation of Mother Earth. I would like to help save her and keep her beautiful for all, but especially my kids and their kids and so on.
