Description

This group brings together people in the greater Los Angeles or Southern California who are interested in cultivating Transition Towns initiatives. This YahooGroup is our "live discussion" group; we have a calendar of events and a full website at www.TransitionLA.org

Transition Towns initiatives are a proactive, community-based response to the twin crises of climate change (global warming) and peak oil (the end of cheap oil). Founded by Rob Hopkins of the UK, the Transition Towns movement is "going viral" worldwide. Read more about it at the Transition Network's site http://transitiontowns.org , in Rob Hopkins' book The Transition Handbook (Green Books, 2008), or via Hopkins' blog www.TransitionCulture.org.

Here at TTLA we compare notes and support each other as we discuss what we're doing with the Transition Towns movement in our local geographies. Through this virtual community we can communicate directly with each other about what works, doesn't work, challenges, and successes in getting this movement going here in Southern California.

The name TTLA is from Transition "Town" Los Angeles (the "town" part being a bit of sarcasm). There is now a City Hub for Transition activities in the LA area, and local groups are active/forming in several local neighborhoods. Some of these groups are official Transition Initiatives with the international Transition Network.
