The challenges of climate change and peak oil demand that neighbours come together as communities and act on a seemingly impossible planetary scale. Now over a 1,000 communities are coming together across the globe as part of Transition movement and starting to offer, not only a hope of resilience in the face of challenge, but a real glimpse of a positive vision of a post fossil fuel society.

Firstly the Transition movement is important beyond comprehension. Secondly, the Transition training is essential as we learn our way though unchartered waters and finally Lynn is a visionary and a motivator. Put the three together and you have a resource of unquantifiable value, helping to educate and galvanize the newly formed community groups and Transition initiatives of our region.

This pledge was inspired by Ben Metz of Ashoka who is involved with Transition Town Hackney. see http://transitionculture.org/2009/04/22/...
